“When you have a First Lady who is eloquent, articulate, and intelligent—someone who truly represents our country—it becomes an advantage. She made us proud in Addis Ababa, and as she prepares to host a few First Ladies soon, her role in strengthening Nigeria’s global image cannot be overstated,” the Minister stated.

Dr. Oduwole also praised the First Lady’s humanitarian efforts through the Renewed Hope Initiative (RHI), highlighting her dedication to poverty alleviation and support for vulnerable communities across Nigeria.

“Prosperity is a key focus for us. We want Nigerians to thrive in all they do. We are ready to partner with the First Lady in any capacity she requires our support. Likewise, we will seek her collaboration in areas where her influence can help us, particularly in engaging with traditional rulers,” she added.

Describing the meeting as enriching, the Minister expressed confidence that the collaboration between her ministry and the RHI would enhance service delivery to underserved communities.

“I take solace in having her as a mother figure to guide me. The First Lady is actively involved in charity work, especially in healthcare and education, and is making a real difference in the lives of the less privileged. We had an extensive discussion on these areas,” Dr. Oduwole remarked.

She further pledged her ministry’s support in poverty alleviation and developmental programs led by the First Lady.

Earlier, Senator Tinubu held a closed-door session with the Minister.
