Our hope is that this initiative will have a tangible impact on the lives of those we are here to support as we distribute these associated food items, we encourage the beneficiaries to utilize them for the well-being of their families. A healthy family forms the foundation of a striving society, which is ultimately our goal. The Renewed Hope Initiative remains committed to transforming lives through various programs in health, education, agriculture, social investment and economic empowerment.”

“We are dedicated to supporting our citizens, particularly persons with disabilities, youth, women and children, so to help them build a better family life.” She added.

Jostoman:
2027 election right?

Sure thing

Renewed Sege!

This food sharing is what this woman is calling an initiative? Why

1) sharing a few 1000s bag of rice to a state with millions of people would not make any difference what so ever

2) the cost of her traveling to share this food is probably more than the value of the food being shared

So how does this make any sense?

Okay o

In this same State, members of the State House of Assemby and their Spouses are going to Canada for a retreat, while the State is giving palliatives to the supporters who are shouting MANDATE on empty stomachs.

Very shameless People...

Mtn you are everywhere. I asked in other thread that what are you doing for a living?

helinues:
Good.

Madam green

First lady let me give you free advice, start a solar panel factory and see how you will impart people's lives, it's up to you know how you can make it successful you already pay people called advisers I'm not one of them tell them to help you. The thing is you are already a senator so no one can question what you do as a first lady.

Giving out food while you impoverish the same people.

Why not make the country conducive for people to cater for themselves.

Naso, impoverish them and give them peanuts as succor

Abeg enough of all these renew this renew that. Life is f*cking getting rougher day by day for the common man

Esama:
Mtn you are everywhere. I asked in other thread that what are you doing for a living?

Helinues is at his job, yet you're asking him what he does for a living?

The Opposite of Renewed Hope is Renewed ........

COMRADES, like husband like wife, palliative movement all the time

Noted.

They have used food to silence a lot of people

Elsanchez:
Renewed Sege!

this is an insult and a disgrace to Nigerians and I believe the average Yoruba person will see the monumental insult,are they pacifying ekiti state for their support with a few bags of rice and indomie?this is a big let down to the people of ekiti,you cannot build them a factory or sustainable means to survive but choose to dash them food items that will only last a day or two,I sincerely hope she does not come to igboland with that idea

Hmmm

Remi is at it again with yet another misguided propaganda attempt.
It's incredible to see the provision of food and basic amenities being used as a mere campaign agenda. The so-called "Renewed Hope" of Tinubu boils down to nothing more than offering rice and palliatives to the people.
The poor will continue to praise the oppressors in Nigeria in appreciation for crumbs

Ok

Will Nigerians continue to fall prey of this gesture.
Someone created hunger and is coming feed you with crumbs .
You'll go and line up inside sun/rain to vote for them in 2027

Stomach infrastructure.
