First Lady Oluremi Tinubu has suggested that Nigerians who fail to recognise the country’s progress need what she called “Bola Tinubu eyeglasses”.
She made the remark on Friday at the inauguration of the Abuja headquarters of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, a grassroots mobilisation group campaigning for President Bola Tinubu’s re-election in 2027.

Jigi-Bola refers to an eye-care initiative introduced by Tinubu during his tenure as Lagos State governor in 2001 to provide services including free eye screening, eyeglasses and surgery. The programme was later relaunched by the Lagos State Government in 2021.
Mrs Tinubu cited improvements at Nigerian airports as evidence of progress, saying she wanted to be able to travel more quickly.
“I want to get to the airport.
