\u200e\u200eNigeria\u2019s First Lady, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, is set to host over 20,000 women stakeholders in Abuja on Monday as part of efforts to mobilise women for President Bola Tinubu\u2019s re-election bid in 2027.<\/p>\n

This is contained in a statement issued by Dr Gloria Akobundu, a member of the APC Presidential Campaign Council Women Mobilisation Planning Committee in Abuja on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Akobundu said the event, tagged \u201cRenewed Hope Agenda 2.0: From Reforms to Prosperity,\u201d would be organised under the Women Mobilisation Directorate of the 2027 APC Presidential Campaign Council.<\/p>\n

According to her, t\u200ehe mobilisation message for the event is: \u201cOne Voice, One Movement, One Choice, One Mandate 2027\u201d.<\/p>\n

She said \u200ethe gathering was expected to attract women leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, grassroots organisers, political stakeholders, community representatives and other women groups from across the country.<\/p>\n

\u200eAkobundu said the administration\u2019s programmes had impacted the lives of millions of Nigerians, particularly women and youths.<\/p>\n

\u200eShe said the programmes included the Nigerian Education Loan Fund (NELFUND), infrastructure development, social protection interventions, consumer credit, digital skills development and youth empowerment.<\/p>\n

\u200e\u201cNELFUND provides interest-free loans to eligible students and currently has over 1.4 million registered students, 1.69 million loan applications and more than N191 billion disbursed,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u200eShe also highlighted the Nigerian Consumer Credit Corporation (CREDICORP), which provides credit for personal needs, education, home improvement and renewable energy.<\/p>\n

\u200eAccording to her, the initiative is aimed at expanding access to consumer credit and ultimately reaching 50 per cent of Nigeria\u2019s working families.<\/p>\n

\u200eOn infrastructure, Akobundu said the Tinubu administration had constructed more than 2,700 kilometres of highways, while several major roads were undergoing construction, reconstruction or rehabilitation.<\/p>\n

\u200eShe listed the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, Sokoto-Badagry Super Highway and Abuja-Kaduna-Zaria-Kano Road among the projects, adding that rail modernisation, energy and housing investments were also receiving attention.<\/p>\n

\u200e\u201cThe Federal Government has also continued to strengthen social protection through the Renewed Hope Conditional Cash Transfer Programme, introduced following the removal of the petrol subsidy and other economic shocks,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u200eAkobundu said cash transfers had reached 75 million vulnerable households, with NG-CARES, SOLID and HOPE also providing support.<\/p>\n

\u200eShe urged women across the South-East to intensify their mobilisation and take the Renewed Hope message to communities and localities across the region.<\/p>\n

\u200eShe said the mobilisation would also provide an opportunity for women to play a stronger role in the political process ahead of the 2027 general elections.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
