Vice President Kashim Shettima has said that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s leadership is focusing on healthcare and education to improve conditions in Nigeria.
Shettima made the remarks over the weekend while receiving a delegation from Big Win Philanthropy, led by its CEO, Jamie Cooper, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
“In a couple of years to come, I am projecting a vibrant and better Nigerian society. We are investing in healthcare and education – it is a game-changer,” the Vice President stated. “With education, within a generation, the son of a pauper can become a celebrated icon.”
He said the administration is willing to work with organizations like Big Win Philanthropy.
“We are open for business. We are ready for fruitful engagements with Big Win Philanthropy because you have the deep knowledge, the institutional memory, the goodwill and the context for a partnership,” Shettima said. “Honestly, Nigeria is not a nation of scarcity; we are a nation defined by potential, blessed with abundant natural resources, but our greatest wealth lies in our people – young, dynamic and determined.”
