First Lady Meets US Special Envoy For ‘Best Future Generations

Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, says promoting education, using every necessary incentive, is one of the pivotal programmes of the Bola Tinubu administration.

She shared this insight with the US Special Envoy for Best Future Generations, Charles Harder, in Washington.

President Bola Tinubu, she notes, is working hard to build a formidable foundation that can be built upon, with quality education on the front burner.

While informing the Special Envoy that a nation-wide campaign to promote child nutrition, through her office, is set to be launched in a few days, the First Lady also stated that books must be retained in schools despite technological advancement, citing the need to broaden the knowledge base of students without disruptions or interference from social media and related channels.

In his remarks, the Special Envoy explained that the meeting was convened to further discussions on the needs and situation of the Nigerian Child, noting that the Best Future Generations, a brainchild of First Lady Melania Trump, seeks to address issues affecting children the world over, including food, nutrition, health and protection from all forms of abuse.

The meeting was held on the margins of the Fostering the Future Together Global Summit, where over 45 First Ladies from various nations participated and discussed the roles and effects of Artificial Intelligence among children and adolescents worldwide.
