President Bola Tinubu has extended his congratulations to fathers and paternal figures, recognizing their significant contributions to the nation’s development through their sacrifices, forbearance, provision, protection, presence, and guidance of the younger generation towards a noble and righteous path.
In his Father’s Day message, President Tinubu noted the historical significance of the day, tracing its origins to the Middle Ages and its official recognition in West Virginia, United States, in 1908, where it was established to honor 362 men who perished in a coal mining explosion. The day is set apart to honor all fathers, both living and deceased, as well as paternal figures.
President Tinubu emphasized the critical role fathers play in society, highlighting how their responsibility and guidance help navigate children through life’s challenges and prepare them for the future. He stressed that fathers impart invaluable values such as discipline, integrity, service, respect, love, and national allegiance, which cannot be bought but are taught through personal example.
The President expressed his appreciation for all fathers, both acknowledged and unacknowledged, who endure daily hardships to provide for their families, calling them true heroes. He urged fathers to remain committed to their essential role in positively shaping the destinies of future generations.
