Shettima praises Tinubu’s leadership, as UNICEF commits to partnering on nutrition, education, and human capital initiatives.
As United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) pledges continued support and partnership in the actualisation of programmes under President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, Vice President Kashim Shettima says the move is a step in the right direction, stressing that Tinubu has redefined the concept of modern leadership in Nigeria.
Commenting on the administration’s vigour in pursuing legacy projects in health, nutrition, human capital development, and related fields, Shettima said the government was committed to working with UNICEF and other development agencies to advance the “laudable initiatives” of the federal government, such as Nutrition 774 Initiative, Economic and Financial Inclusion, and Nutrition Intervention Fund.
The vice president spoke Wednesday at State House, Abuja, when he played host to a delegation from UNICEF Nigeria, led by the country representative, Ms Wafaa Saeed Abdelatef.
Shettima said the country was blessed with a dedicated and committed leader in Tinubu.
He stated that the president was determined to invest in the youth and in the overall transformation of the education sector, saying in UNICEF, Nigeria has a worthy partner in progress to actualise its goals.
Shettima stated, “President Bola Tinubu is a man of courage and conviction and he is doing everything possible to redefine the concept of modern leadership in Nigeria.
