First Lady of America, Jill Biden hosted a farewell luncheon for other First Ladies around the world, including Nigeria’s Remi Tinubu, on the sidelines of the 79th United Nations General Assembly in New York.

Reflecting on the relationships built during her tenure, Jill noted on Wednesday that this would be her final such gathering as First Lady of the United States.

She expressed her gratitude for their continued partnership in promoting peace and development worldwide, assuring them that their relationship would continue even after she leaves office in January 2025.

“I appreciate you all for always attending this gathering. I have a strong feeling that I will see more of you in the next chapter of my life.

“I wish you all the best as you return to your respective countries, especially those with long journeys ahead,” Jill Biden said in a statement on X by Busola Kukoyi, spokesperson for Tinubu.

These luncheons, customary during the UNGA, serve as platforms for global leaders and their spouses to engage in bilateral talks, strengthen diplomatic ties, and foster partnerships.

Tinubu attended the luncheon held at Pier 57 in New York, marking the conclusion of her engagements at the 79th UNGA session.

The 79th Session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) is an annual event where representatives from all 193 UN member states gather to discuss and address global issues.
