NIGERIA’S GREAT RESET – PART 17
Tinubu’s N1.4trn Social-Protection Reset: Turning Economic Reform Into People-Centred Governance By Gloria Fraser President Tinubu’s approximately $1 billion social-protection programme could become the human face of Nigeria’s economic reset—protecting vulnerable
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's approximately $1 billion social-protection programme, known as the Renewed Hope Social Protection Programme, aims to become the human face of Nigeria's economic reset. The programme includes initiatives such as the Household Prosperity and Empowerment Social Protection Project (HOPE-SP), valued at approximately N1.4 trillion.
The government has also resumed traceable cash transfers, expanded identity-linked verification, and continued reforming the National Social Register. The One-Humanitarian-One-Poverty Response System aims to connect humanitarian assistance, poverty reduction, and household data, reducing duplicated interventions and tracking whether supported families progress towards stability.
These measures aim to protect vulnerable citizens while creating pathways from hardship to self-reliance, embodying the collective responsibility of safeguarding human dignity in the face of economic reform.
