FEC approves initiative to tackle poverty

The Federal Executive Council has approved a new national framework, known as the One Humanitarian One Poverty Response System (OHOPRS), aimed at tackling poverty in Nigeria. The system seeks to improve coordination among government agencies, development partners, and humanitarian organisations to ensure vulnerable Nigerians receive coordinated support.

OHOPRS is a key pillar of President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, through which the Federal Government aims to lift millions of Nigerians out of poverty. The framework brings humanitarian assistance, social protection, and poverty reduction programmes under a unified system, with households placed at the centre of planning, service delivery, and impact measurement.
