Tinubu’s interventions include a national scholarship program which was recently flagged off in Abuja with 43 beneficiaries from across the nation, ICT training for women and other empowerment programs in agriculture and social investment.

The governor said that these would complement similar policy objectives of President Bola Tinubu’s ‘Renewed Hope’ agenda.

He said: “We have to encourage her on the Renewed Hope Initiative which we have all heard about, which she is championing with the wife of the vice president, Nana Shettima and of course with other first ladies across the states because it complements what Mr. President is doing. I think she is really great with her focus on schools and to be able to provide succour for the people that are vulnerable.”
