First Lady unveils S’West food bank in Ogun

The First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, launched the National Community Food Bank Programme for the South-West zone in Ogun State on Tuesday. This initiative aligns with President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, aiming to enhance food security, improve health outcomes, and build a more prosperous nation. The launch, the fourth zonal flag-off, supports malnourished children under six, pregnant women, and lactating mothers with nutritious food.

Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, and his wife, Bamidele Abiodun, established three food banks ahead of the zonal launch, while the Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Prof Muhammad Pate, and the Executive Director and CEO of the National Primary Health Care Development Agency, Dr Muyi Aina, played crucial roles in driving the programme.
