Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Nkeiruka Onyejeocha, has said the administration of President Bola Tinubu remains firmly committed to the safety and protection of all citizens.

She made the disclosure yesterday in a message released to commemorate her birthday, which she celebrates every November 23, as Nigeria continues to address security challenges in various parts of the country.

Onyejeocha expressed solidarity with Nigerians navigating current uncertainties, saying, “As I mark another year today, my heart is with every Nigerian facing the uncertainty and pain that these challenging times bring.”

She acknowledged attempts to undermine collective unity and progress, making a case for resilience and hope.

“While we are confronted by despair and deliberate sabotage of our collective will for unity and progress, we must choose hope over despair, unity over designed fragmentation of our people.

“Nigeria has weathered horrendous storms in times past, we will together do it again and emerge victorious as one nation under God. Peace will, indeed, return to our land.”

She urged Nigerians to retain hope in the sincerity and capacity of the Tinubu administration to address and overcome the challenges.

Onyejeocha had, on Saturday, visited City of Refuge Orphanage Home in Durumi and Destined Children’s Orphanage at Kado Estate, Abuja, where she donated food items and welfare materials to vulnerable children, celebrating her birthday.

Sources close to the minister revealed that the visits reflected her belief that leadership must be demonstrated through service, especially during challenging times.
