Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu has revealed how Nigerians could tackle the hardship and hunger in the country.

 

She urged Nigerians to go into farming.

She said agriculture still held the key to bettering the lot of citizens.

The wife of the President said the Commander in Chief was making the right decisions to build a Nigeria that is more respected in the long run.

She also admonished Nigerians to be more accountable as a people as regards resources.

Senator Oluremi Tinubu gave the advice when she received the Deputy Secretary General of the United Nations, Amina Mohammed in her office at the Presidential Villa, Abuja Wednesday.

The First Lady noted that the various interventions of the Renewed Hope Initiative, RHI, especially in the areas of Agriculture, Empowerment, Education, Health and Social Welfare are to complement the efforts of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.

“The President has made the right decisions. These decisions will help us build a Nigeria that is more respected. We should be more accountable as a people as regards our resources”.

Senator Oluremi Tinubu said there is a need to inspire the youth to think appropriately about the nation.

“We have to inspire them to think Nigeria first before any State”.

She explained that this necessitated her, through the Renewed Hope Initiative, RHI organise the #ONE NIGERIA/Unity Fabric.

“Youth between 15 years to 25 years will design the fabric depicting Nigeria and not just their State or tribe. The prize money is huge”.

On the Issue of IDPs, Senator Oluremi Tinubu said the RHI has commenced the monthly Food Outreach Program to the IDPs and Persons with Disabilities.

“I am not being deterred. I will continue to do all I can for the people”.
