First Lady Oluremi Tinubu Calls for Collective Action Against Bullying on Children’s Day 2025

As Nigeria joins the rest of the world to celebrate Children’s Day 2025, the First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Her Excellency Senator Oluremi Tinubu, CON, has extended heartfelt greetings to children across the nation while calling for united efforts to combat bullying in all its forms.

In a special message marking the occasion, Senator Tinubu highlighted the theme of this year’s celebration, “Stand Up: Building a Bullying-Free Generation,” urging Nigerians to play active roles in creating safe and nurturing environments for every child.

“Whether it occurs in schools, communities, or online, bullying leaves deep scars that can hinder a child’s emotional, social, and academic growth,” the First Lady said. “Every child deserves to grow up in an environment that is safe, supportive, and free from fear.”

The First Lady emphasized that building a bullying-free generation requires a collective commitment from parents, educators, community leaders, and the wider society. She called on all Nigerians to instill values of empathy, kindness, and respect in children, reinforcing the idea that true strength lies in compassion.

“As a mother, I urge every Nigerian to stand up against bullying. Let us teach our children that true leadership begins with caring for one another,” she added.

Senator Tinubu’s message comes at a time when concerns over school-related violence, cyberbullying, and mental health among children are on the rise globally. Her call to action underscores the importance of raising emotionally resilient and socially responsible young Nigerians.

The First Lady concluded her address with warm wishes for children across the country, reaffirming her commitment to their welfare and growth.

“Happy Children’s Day,” she said, celebrating the potential and promise of Nigeria’s next generation.
