On Friday, the Federal Government stated that its objective extends beyond eradicating poverty; it also aims to prevent Nigerians from falling into poverty. Dr. Betta Edu, the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, shared this during her two-day visit to Maiduguri, Borno State.
This information was conveyed by her Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Rasheed Zubair, in a statement issued from Abuja.
Dr. Edu, who was welcomed by Borno State Governor Prof. Babagana Zulum, emphasized that President Bola Tinubu is committed to reducing humanitarian crises and eliminating poverty in Nigeria, aligning with Sustainable Development Goals 1 and 2.
Edu stated, “It is important that the humanitarian ministry renews its partnership with the state and leverage on the state’s successes and experience to find better ways of doing things.
“The ministry under me will not only aim at eliminating poverty, but it shall also provide safety nets to prevent Nigerians from going under the poverty line.”
