First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has declared that no Nigerian child should go hungry, as the Renewed Hope Initiative (RHI) intensifies efforts to expand National Food Banks, nutrition support programmes and community-based interventions for vulnerable families across the country.
Speaking on Wednesday during the second-quarter meeting with wives of state governors at the State House in Abuja, Mrs Tinubu said the initiative was designed to combat child malnutrition at the grassroots while providing support for pregnant women and nursing mothers.
This was disclosed in a statement by the Senior Special Assistant (Media) to the First Lady, Busola Kukoyi, on Wednesday, June 24.
“Our children are not supposed to be going hungry,” the First Lady said, urging governors’ wives to identify and support malnourished children in their respective states.
“No matter what, when you see a child that is malnourished in your state, you have to take them and make sure that they are properly cared for,” she added.
