Federal Government has said that it will formally introduce a $100m World Bank funded Nigeria-For-Women project alongside President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, (P-BAT) Cares for Nigerian Women project as part of activities marking the 2024 International Women’s Day celebration.
Minister of Women Affairs, Barrister Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye, made this known at a media briefing announcing the line-up of activities, yesterday, in Abuja.
She said: “The President will officially be launching the P-BAT Cares for Nigerian Women alongside other programmes, like the Nigeria for Women project and the Integrity Brigade, which I want all of you to be part of.
“As a people, let us start realising who we are because this is the greatest nation in the whole of Africa. I want to present members of the media to the President on the 7th of March as members of the integrity brigade because you play a crucial role in helping us to fight some of these challenges.
“Not just the media, the royal fathers and religious leaders are also part of this vanguard that the President will be launching, but the media is very important to me because it is only you that I can use to achieve our goals for this country.”
