Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Lagos State governor, has thumbed up the nation’s First Lady, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu for her empowerment programs for women and vulnerable groups across the country through her organization, Renewed Hope Initiative.
Sanwo-Olu gave the commendation on Wednesday when he paid a courtesy visit to the First Lady at the State House in Abuja, as contained in a press statement issued by Busola Kukoyi; Special Adviser (Media), to the First Lady.
The interventions of the initiative in the education sector were a National Scholarship Programme which was recently flagged off in Abuja with 43 beneficiaries from across the nation, women ICT Training and other empowerment programmes in agriculture and social investment.
The governor noted that these would complement similar programs of the Bola Tinubu Renewed Hope Agenda, as well as serve to reassure Nigerians.
“We have to encourage her on the Renewed Hope Initiative which we have all heard about, which she is championing with other First Ladies and of course the wife of the Vice President, 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 who are vulnerable,” he said.
Sanwo-Olu went on to assure that that the ongoing reforms by President Bola Tinubu, will take the country to a level where every Nigerian could be comfortable as he called for more patience from Nigerians.
“We have to continue to encourage and support him and encourage our citizens as well that we see a bright light down the tunnel. Not doing anything is not an option.
“So, in the course of doing things differently, there will be belt up here, there will be tightening there, but at the end of the day we believe the result that comes out of those reforms will improve the quality of life and make things a lot better for our citizens and the economy will continue to grow in the direction that we are all appreciative of, ” the governor concluded.
