Reactions As Tinubu’s Wife, Remi Presence During ‘Presidential Meeting’
Reactions have trailed a trending photo of first lady, Remi Tinubu reportedly in a meeting between President Bola Tinubu and vice president, Kashim Shettima on economic issues.
It was reported that the photo was taken from the meeting of Tinubu with the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, and the Group Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), Mele Kyari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
While it is unclear if she took part in the meeting, some Nigerians have taken to social media to express their reservation about the photo.

She is not just the first lady but also the deputy president. From Iyaloja General of Nigeria to First Daughter of the FRN. Family enterprises”

An office that does not align with De constitution of federal republic of Nigeria.
