Glamtush reports that Senator Oluremi Tinubu, the First Lady of the Federation, met with the wives of the 36 State governors on Friday at the presidential villa, Abuja.
This online newspaper understands that the meeting which took place at the First Lady’s wing, was to formally introduce and familiarize them with the objectives and the mission of her pet project, the Renewed Hope Initiative (RHI).
According to a statement issued by her special adviser on media, Busola Kukoyi, the wife of the president congratulated the state’s first ladies on the successful conduct of the 2023 elections, which brought their husbands to office.
She reminded the state first ladies that it is time to keep promises made during the elections.
The First Lady pointed out that she will require the support of the wives of the state governors to reach every nook and cranny of the country, noting that looking at the past can most assuredly chart a path for the present and future and this can best be done collectively for better and more sustainable impact.
Tinubu assured the governors’ wives that the RHI will in no way interfere with their personal programmes and projects and that she believes that their support would be impactful.
She said, “I wish to remind each of us that the exalted positions we are in today should be seen as an opportunity to impact more meaningfully, not only in the lives of people in your states but Nigeria as a whole.”
While speaking with journalists after the meeting, Amb. Olufolake Abdulrazak, the wife of Kwara State Governor, assured of the willingness and commitment of the wives of the governors to support RHI, stating that they will go back and elect zonal coordinators to take the mantle to ensure that the grassroots are reached.
She also confirmed that RHI will not in any way affect their individual projects in their various states but instead complement their own efforts.
