First Lady of the President, Senator Remi Tinubu has supported the victims of the flood mishap that ravaged the popular TradeMore Estate in Lugbe, Abuja with the sum of N14.3 million to the 57 household victims to lessen damage experienced during the incident. Donating through the Renewed Hope Initiative, the First Lady who was represented by the wife of the Vice President of the Federation, Hajiya Nana Shettima, expressed her sympathy at the unfortunate incident.
Sen Remi said though there is no assurance that this kind of incident would not reoccur, since the rains are not yet over, she hoped the outreach and intervention of the Renewed Hope Initiative will go a long way in reducing their pains at this time.
She said, though the Initiative is still in the process of registration by the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), she cannot turn the other eye under the present circumstances of the TradeMore Estate which is in her domain.
In his response on behalf of the beneficiaries, the Chairman of the Resident Association, Dr Adewale Adenike thanked the First Lady and the Renewed Hope Initiative for the hand of kindness and support extended to them especially at these trying times.
The beneficiaries were given Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Naira (N250,000.00) per affected household.
A total of 57 households benefited from this outreach by the Renewed Hope Initiative.
