World Food Day: First Lady Charges Nigerians On Food Security

As Nigeria joins the rest of the world in celebrating this year’s World Food Day, the First Lady of Nigeria, Oluremi Tinubu, has reminded citizens of their responsibility in ensuring food security.

In a message commemorating the day, Mrs Tinubu expressed optimism that Nigeria will attain food security.

She used the opportunity to advise families to ensure they eat nutritious food and reduce food waste.

She wrote:

“Today, as the world marks World Food Day with the theme, “Hand in Hand for Better Foods and a Better Future,” we are reminded that food security is a shared responsibility.”

“The future we want, one free from hunger and malnutrition, is within our reach, but it requires every one of us to work together to transform our food systems. It calls for partnerships that promote sustainable agriculture, reduce food waste, and ensure every family in Nigeria has access to nutritious and affordable food.”

“Let us commit to join hands today to build a nation where everyone is involved in the process of food production for a better, healthier and more prosperous future for all.”
