According to a statement by her media aide, Busola Kukoyi, the First Lady visited the palace to attend a church service, and was received by the Secretary General of the Anglican Communion, Worldwide, Bishop Anthony Poggo.

In a short reflection, the First Lady says navigating through contemporary challenges faced by the world requires not just policies and strategies, but also actions shaped by love and compassion.

Lambeth Palace is the seat of the Archbishop of Canterbury.

Mrs. Tinubu interacted with religious leaders.

She also met representatives of the Church of England, including Bishop Rose Hudson-Wilkin, the Bishop of Dover, and Bishop Emma Ineson, acting Bishop of London.

“She also led a special prayer for the royal family and leaders around the world.

“After a short tour of some sections of the palace, the First Lady met with the colleagues from the Anglican Communion office and the Anglican Alliance serving in 42 Anglican churches worldwide, and signed the visitor’s register,” the statement added.

The First Lady and President Tinubu met King Charles III and Queen Camilla on Wednesday, as part of activities lined up for the President’s two-day state visit.

They were also received by the heir to the throne, Prince William, and his wife, Catherine, who travelled with them to Windsor on the same day.

King Charles hosted them to a state banquet at Windsor Castle.
