Senator representing Lagos West District, Dr. Idiat Adebule, has distributed 600 bags of rice to Muslim clerics and other groups across the district. Adebule said the distribution was in support of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda. She said President Tinubu’s programmes were geared towards making life comfortable for Nigerians.
“We are in the holy month of Ramadan to distribute food items in support of our compassionate and generous leader, President Tinubu, who has been working smart and hard to reposition Nigeria for greatness.
“As we all know, Ramadan is not only a period for fasting and righteous deeds, it is also a period to engage in charity from what Allah has provided for us. Therefore, in the spirit of Ramadan, and in consonance with President Tinubu’s quest to ensure no Nigerian lives with hunger, we are distributing bags of rice to the Lagos-West Muslim communities through our religious leaders.“
President Tinubu recognises the challenges being faced by Nigerians as a result of the economic reforms embarked upon by the government to correct the 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 amongst us to survive the realities of this period.
