Forgive me if I have sinned against you – President Tinubu begs Nigerians

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Wednesday appealed to Nigerians for forgiveness, asking citizens to pardon him “if I have sinned” as Muslims across the country begin the Ramadan fast.

The President made the call on Wednesday during a Ramadan Tafsir at the State House Mosque in Abuja, where he urged Nigerians to embrace unity, peace and moral renewal during the holy month.

“We start this Ramadan with all the teaching that it brings to us all. But the main principle is to do good to people, to share love and faith, and to forgive sins. I say, if I have sinned, forgive me as Nigerians.”

Tinubu said Ramadan should inspire citizens to show compassion, strengthen togetherness and engage in acts of kindness that contribute to national development.

He also called on Nigerians of all faiths to pray for peace and support ongoing efforts to tackle terrorism, banditry and other security challenges.
