Oluremi Tinubu, Nigeria’s first lady, on Monday announced the donation of N1 billion under the Renewed Hope Initiative (RNI) to strengthen the fight against tuberculosis in the country.
Tinubu, while speaking at an event marking the 2025 World Tuberculosis Day, held at Sauka Village, Abuja urged Nigerians to avail themselves of the Federal Government facilities and get tested to know their TB status.
She said ending TB by 2030 is a collective responsibility of government, traditional and religious leaders, legislators, the youth, healthcare workers, private sector organizations, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), community-based organizations (CBOs) and international partners.
