Oba of Lagos also admonished the youth to be closer to God, noting that Nigerian youth are mostly good and hardworking
“Though some youth are incurably lazy and are always waiting to be spoon-fed, teach them not to always wait for fish but learn how to fish themselves,” he said.
The statement explained that the visit by the First Lady was an opportunity for the monarch to restate his appeal for a special status for Lagos State as the former Federal Capital of Nigeria.
