As we celebrate Christmas and look forward to the new year, 2025, I want to take a moment to send my warmest wishes to all Nigerians.

I express my heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support and patience as we work towards building a better Nigeria. 

I want to assure you that under the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, we are committed to positive changes that will benefit every Nigerian. Some of the changes are already yielding positive results.

As this year comes to a close, let us hold onto the belief that better days are ahead. Let us continue to love and support one another, foster unity, and embrace the diversity that makes our nation so great.

I wish you all a merry Christmas and a prosperous 2025 filled with love, joy, peace and prosperity.

Her Excellency
