Women in the nation have been reassured by President Bola Tinubu that his administration is committed to ridding Nigeria of the vested interests that have stifled the nation’s development.
Dele Alake, the president’s spokesperson, issued a statement on Thursday that quoted Tinubu as saying, “Enough is enough, we are taking our country back.”
When the audience of All Progressives Congress (APC) women leaders from the 36 states and Abuja, led by Betta Edu, the APC National Woman Leader, arrived at the State House, the President made this statement.

The women received assurances from Tinubu that the issues of industrialization, healthcare, and security will receive top consideration under his administration.
“We have established a scholarship scheme that would guarantee their four years of tertiary education,” Tinubu was quoted as saying.
“Security is paramount in my administration’s agenda because women bear the cost of insecurity anywhere in the world. Issues of insecurity are being discussed at the highest level and this administration will ensure that insecurity is halted immediately.
“Medicare is another. We will ensure that health facilities are revamped and we will pursue this with vigour. Industrialisation is yet another priority as your children and relations will gain employment,” he stated.
Tinubu praised the APC women leaders for their support during the 2023 elections, adding that they all deserve awards for their efforts.
“We will continue to strive for a better Nigeria. You will not regret your confidence in this administration,” he said.
