ADB to facilitate FG one-meal par day policy

The African Development Bank (AfDB) says it will partner with Nigeria, especially in areas of facilitating and enhancing Nigeria’s Diasporas Commission, which is set to be a contributing factor in the actualisation of the federal government one –meal-a-day programme for primary school students.

At an investment parley with professionals and other Nigerians who attended the recently conducted Akinwumi Adesina Investiture Ceremony as President of the AfDB in Abidjan, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo explained Nigeria’s numerous challenges and efforts by the Buhari administration in tackling them under his “change agenda.”

Tunde Adenibi, a professional staff at AfDB, revealed that the bank is prepared to partner with Nigeria in areas of finance and social investment.

“He (Mr Osinbajo) conveyed the impression that issues have been identified, thought about in a clear and concise manner, and that recommendation for effective and sustainable solutions are being adduced or implemented in order to resolve or reduce the magnitude of the problems,” he said.
