About 250 old people in Anambra State have benefitted from the second edition of Renewed Hope Initiative's Elder Support Scheme (RHIESS).

The event, which took place in Awka, is part of the programme arm of the Renewed Hope Initiative (RHI), a non-governmental humanitarian organization run by the wife of Nigeria's President, Senator Oluremi Tinubu.

The beneficiaries aged 65 and above, were selected from different parts of the state, following strict health, age and economic status criteria for those who are eligible for the programme.

The empowerment programme which is going on in all the 36 states of Nigeria, also has members of Defence and Police Officers' Wives Association (DEPOWA) as beneficiaries.

They were given free medical checks, the sum of N200,000 each to take care of their personal upkeeps, gallons of vegetable oil, and rolls of wrapper.

Presenting the gifts on behalf of the president's wife, the wife of the Governor, Mrs Nonye Soludo who read the Nigeria First Lady's speech, said the economic empowerment project was borne out of steadfast commitment to the well-being of the elderly citizens and marks a significant stride in the collective pursuit of a more inclusive and compassionate society.

She noted that as the festive season draws closer, it has become important to emphasize the significance of prioritizing the elderly in the initiative.

Responding, three of the beneficiaries, Mrs Medina Ifeanyi from Ogbaru, Comrade Ebenezer Obakamma and Mr Isaac Uche from Ihiala, thanked the president's wife and Mrs Soludo for remembering the poor, and described the gesture as the first in the history of the state.

Also at the event were the wife Of the deputy governor of Anambra State, Mrs Oluchi Ibezim, wife of the National Chairman of APGA, Mrs Amara Ezeokenwa, the Executive Chairman of Idemili South, Mrs Amaka Obi, among others.###

A detribalized woman with a large heart.
We the people of Anambra appreciate your love and support for our Aged ones.

Google her name, she's doing it everywhere. It is not advisable to harbor hate because those you hate may be your helpers tomorrow.

✓ Google her name, she's doing it everywhere.

With whose money? Is she sharing money that belongs to Nigerians in her own name? If yes, why? 😩😩😩😩😩😩

Very commendable from mrs Remi Tinubu. This gesture will go long way for the recipients

Kobojunkie:

Of course, she has never worked for one Kobo all her life, she just sits in her room, then hack into Nigerians' accounts in their banks and steal their money, then begins sharing it across the states.

🥱

Stop.laughing at an elderly man whose activity or life has not caused any harm or negative impact in your life. You do not know how you will be in your old, if you live to get old

Please have my local government provide federal work opportunities for 200 graduates. We would greatly appreciate it.
