Oluremi Tinubu distributes food items to vulnerable groups in Ekiti

Oluremi Tinubu, the first lady, has distributed food items to vulnerable groups in Ekiti state.

In a statement on Thursday, Busola Kukoyi, senior special assistant on media to the first lady, said the programme aligns with President Bola Tinubu’s effort to enhance the lives of Nigerians.

Oluremi, who was represented by Nana Shettima, wife of the vice-president, said the food outreach programme of the renewed hope initiative (RHI), under the social investment programme is aimed at complementing the government’s efforts.

She said the monthly intervention strategy is targeted toward the vulnerable groups in society.

The first lady urged the beneficiaries not to sell the food items but to use them in their household.

Olayemi Oyebanji, wife of the Ekiti state governor, thanked Oluremi for her support of the state, especially in the areas of agriculture, women’s empowerment, and scholarship.

She encouraged the beneficiaries to embrace agriculture, especially in their homes, to provide food for their families and neighbours.
