Oluremi Tinubu at 66: Foundation Lauds RHI’s Impact on Women, Youths, Vulnerable Families

The Esther Matthew Tonlagha Foundation has commended the impact of the Renewed Hope Initiative (RHI) on women, youths and vulnerable families as the First Lady, Senator Oluremi Bola Tinubu, marks her 66th birthday.

The foundation said the interventions introduced under the RHI had demonstrated the Office of the First Lady’s potential to contribute meaningfully to social development, economic empowerment, and improved welfare for disadvantaged Nigerians.

The chief executive officer of the foundation, Assistant Pastor Esther Tonlagha stated this in a congratulatory message to the First Lady.

Tonlagha described Senator Tinubu as a woman of grace, compassion, faith and dedicated service to humanity.

She said that since assuming the role of First Lady, Mrs Tinubu had demonstrated that the office could serve as an instrument for compassion, empowerment and positive social change.

Tonlagha particularly commended the First Lady’s Renewed Hope Initiative, saying it had introduced interventions targeting women, children, young people and vulnerable Nigerians.

According to her, the initiative’s focus on education, healthcare, economic empowerment, agriculture, food security and social investment reflected Senator Tinubu’s commitment to creating opportunities for Nigerians to thrive.

She also praised the First Lady’s advocacy for women and the girl child, citing initiatives under the RHI that promoted access to education, skills acquisition and economic opportunities, while providing support for vulnerable families and communities.

“Your humanitarian efforts have also provided support to women entrepreneurs, young people, students and disadvantaged Nigerians, reinforcing your belief that empowering individuals is essential to building stronger families and a prosperous nation,” Tonlagha said.

She said that beyond the various programmes and interventions, Senator Tinubu’s leadership had continued to inspire hope through her compassion for vulnerable Nigerians and determination to use her position to impact lives. Tonlagha also recalled the First Lady’s visit to Delta State, describing the “historic homecoming visit” as an occasion that reaffirmed her connection with the people of the Niger Delta.

She said the foundation aligned with Senator Tinubu’s vision because of its focus on education, agriculture, food security, scholarships, vocational training, and the empowerment of women, youths, and vulnerable households.

“Today, we celebrate your 66 years and, more importantly, the lives you have touched, the hope you have inspired and the positive impact you continue to make as First Lady of Nigeria,” Tonlagha said.

She prayed for continued wisdom, sound health, strength, peace and grace for the First Lady, while wishing her greater fulfilment and many more years of impactful service to Nigeria. “May your new age bring you greater grace, divine favour, joy, fulfilment and many more years of impactful service,” she added.
