Therefore, in the spirit of Ramadan and in line with President Tinubu\u2019s quest to ensure no Nigerian goes hungry, we are distributing these bags of rice to the Lagos West Muslim communities through our religious leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Senator Adebule acknowledged the economic challenges Nigerians are facing due to the government\u2019s ongoing reforms, but assured that the situation is improving.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Tinubu recognises the difficulties caused by the economic adjustments necessary to correct unsustainable practices in our fledgling economy. In his usual compassionate nature, he has encouraged us, as representatives of the people, to continuously intervene with food palliatives to help the vulnerable among us navigate this period.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, we can all attest that our economy is gradually recovering\u2014the Naira is stabilising, inflation is slowing down, and things can only get better as we continue to work hard and support the government at all levels.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She also called on Islamic scholars (Ulamah) to continue supporting President Tinubu\u2019s administration.<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Imam of Aranse Oluwa Central Mosque, Idi-Oro, Alhaji Abdulateef Alamutu, expressed gratitude to Senator Adebule for the gesture.<\/p>\n<p>He commended her efforts in providing relief to the clerics and acknowledged the positive impact of her humanitarian outreach.
