Oluremi Tinubu Ignites Excitement With Anambra Visit On September 10

Senator Oluremi Tinubu, the First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, will make her first official visit to Anambra State since taking office on Thursday, September 10, 2026,

It is anticipated that the visit will enhance the current collaboration between the Federal Government and Anambra State in promoting initiatives aimed at reducing poverty, empowering the economy, ensuring food security, and improving the quality of life for citizens who are at risk.

This was revealed in a statement released on Wednesday by Daniel Ezeigwe, the media assistant to Dr. Nonye Soludo’s wife, the governor of Anambra State.

The statement read in part, “The empowerment programme is designed to provide beneficiaries with practical economic support and opportunities to improve their livelihoods, with particular attention to people and households requiring assistance to become more economically productive.

“Another major highlight of the visit will be the launch of the National Community Food Bank Programme for the South-East Geopolitical Zone, which will take place in Anambra State on the same day.

“The programme is part of efforts under the ‘Renewed Hope Initiative’ to strengthen food security and provide support to vulnerable households, particularly in the face of rising concerns around hunger and nutrition.

“As part of her itinerary, Senator Tinubu will also proceed to the Federal Polytechnic, Oko, where she is expected to commission key projects in the institution.”

The First Lady’s visit comes against the backdrop of the progressive partnership between the Federal Government and Anambra State.

The statement noted, “President Bola Tinubu, during his last state visit to Anambra, on May 8, 2025, described the relationship between the Federal Government and the state as one based solidly on partnership and shared prosperity, while commending the state’s fast-paced development efforts under Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s administration.

“For Anambra, the visit will also mark a significant moment as the state welcomes the First Lady for the first time since she assumed office, with thousands of residents expected to directly benefit from the empowerment programme and the wider interventions scheduled for the visit,” the statement added.

We extend a warm and sincere wish to her for a peaceful visit to the state when she does arrive.
