First Lady Oluremi Tinubu Advocates for Mental Health Awareness in the Workplace
Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has highlighted the urgent need to focus on mental health, particularly in workplace settings.
Speaking on Thursday, she brought attention to this critical issue as Nigeria joins the global community in observing Mental Health Awareness Day.
This year’s theme, “It’s Time to Prioritize Mental Health in the Workplace,” resonates deeply, especially in an era where many individuals grapple with dissatisfaction and stress at work.
The First Lady emphasized that mental well-being is often compromised during challenging times, making it essential for organizations to prioritize mental health initiatives.
She noted that unexpressed emotions can lead to serious mental health issues, urging employers and employees alike to create an open dialogue about mental well-being.
Oluremi Tinubu stated that if fears of stigmatization were absent, more individuals would be willing to discuss their struggles, enabling earlier diagnoses and more effective recovery strategies.
The First Lady passionately expressed that mental health support must extend beyond the workplace, advocating for a culture of love and understanding that fosters open conversations about mental health challenges.
By doing so, the prevalence of mental health issues can be significantly reduced, contributing to a healthier society.
She encouraged everyone to take an active role in enhancing mental health awareness, urging individuals to seek medical assistance and counseling as soon as they notice signs of distress.
Emphasizing the importance of community, she urged everyone to look out for one another, reinforcing the idea that collective effort is essential for building a safer and more supportive environment for all.

‘Government Prioritizes Money More’ — PDP Calls Out FG On New Tax Law
It has been shared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is calling on the federal government to suspend the tax law set to take effect on January 1, 2026.
This was revealed in a statement released by Ini Ememobong, National Publicity Secretary of the PDP. He stated that this new law shows how Nigerians and the masses will be affected, arguing that the government is prioritizing finance over security and other pressing matters.
