You can’t satisfy everyone, Lagos Imam tells Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu joined Muslim worshippers on Friday at the Lekki Central Mosque in Lagos for Jumat prayers.


National Security Adviser, Malam Nuhu Ribadu; Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat; Chief of Staff to the President, Rt-Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila; President Bola Ahmed Tinubu; Principal Private Secretary to the President Hakeem Muri-Okunola during the Jumat Prayer at the Lekki Central Mosque, Lagos State. Friday, December 26, 2025.

The visiting Imam, Dr Salahudeen Arriyadhi, praised the President for the numerous developmental projects being carried out by his administration and encouraged him to stay resolute despite criticisms.

A Friday statement shared by Special Adviser to the President (Information & Strategy), Bayo Onanuga, revealed this.

“You cannot satisfy everyone at the same time,” Dr Arriyadhi told Tinubu.

Quoting the Quran, he added, “Allah was happy with leaders who listened to the cries of his followers but unhappy with leaders who do not attend to the needs of the led.

“We are praying for you, and you will succeed.”

In his sermon titled ‘Unity in Diversity’ and ‘Remembering the Day of Judgement’, Dr Arriyadhi emphasised that human diversity in colour, tribe, religion, language, and nation was deliberate, ordained by Allah.


He said, “Diversity is a sign of Allah’s Wisdom. If Allah had wanted every one of his creations to be one, he would have created them one.

“Diversity in religion and tribe should not be a source of problems.”

He urged that differences be viewed as a foundation for harmony, learning, and unity.

Tinubu, accompanied by his Chief of Staff, Rt-Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, and National Security Adviser, Malam Nuhu Ribadu, was welcomed at the mosque by the Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, and the mosque management.

The President arrived in Lagos on December 20 to spend the end-of-year festive season in the commercial capital.

you want make them no chop because terrorist is to be suyarized

The President is in Lagos to celebrate the festive season with his people.

Na the people wey dey deceive am

Instead of the Imam to use the golden opportunity to tell Tinubu and his entourage that he should lessen the burden on the people, he was telling Tinubu that he cannot satisfy everybody. Sycophant preacher. They would rather be saying what their leaders would like to hear probably to gain favour, instead of telling them the naked bitter truth.

Imampreneur the Muslim version of pastorpreneur 😂

This is why you should have gotten yourself some education and also some wisdom, no matter how small the wisdom.
You should have tried to get some

thy bomb only empty land oooo,but pls can I tell us how many terrorists killed by this attack

A good friend of mine who is a pastor once told me, "if you dont have a strong spiritual covering, every good thing that happens to you can be stolen away by the devil". So I say, pray for your president, regardless of how you feel about him.

Lagos Imam sef wan cash out.

The president is in Lagos state.

Tinubu and Lagos state politics, na like 5 and 6.

The opposition in Lagos state are just wasting their time

The man wear shoe dey pray for inside mosque even sitdown for high chair, Yoruba Muslims we hail.

While US are busy chasing terrorists in Nigeria, the president and his lap dog are busy hitting their head on the floor somewhere in Lagos..

if this is not a disgraced country
I don't know what to call it

All they think about is how best to tax and milk the people

Imam oshi… He is already a failure.

It’s not by prayers, otherwise Nigeria would have been the greatest nation on earth.

You can’t put a man with filthy character in charge and expect the country to work normally.

That is why Nigeria has become. ‘ A now disgraced country’ , a pariah state.

I'm not Pro Tinubu, neither am I politically inclined to any party, but during Festive Period, Buhari(of blessed memories) often retire to either his private residence in Kaduna or his hometown in Daura. It's a norms

The best news to end the year. I wish many bombings would follow.
