President Bola Tinubu’s irrevocable commitment to eradicating hunger among Nigerians was played out in his agreement with his counterparts at the Leaders Summit in Rio de Janeiro when they created an international network called: ‘The Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty.
The Tinubu Stakeholders Forum (TSF) which made this observation commended the visionary stance of President Ahmed Bola Tinubu, alongside those who aimed to collaborate and cooperate to making hunger and poverty a thing of the past in their different domains.
TSF in a statement signed by its Chairman Ahmad Sajoh and Secretary Afolabi Josiah, the group said President Tinubu’s position on the groundbreaking initiative aligned perfectly with his administration’s agenda in Nigeria.

“For us, the President’s endorsement of the alliance not only emphasizes the alignment of Nigeria’s national objectives with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 1 (No Poverty) and SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), but also underscores the role of Nigeria as a leader in Africa’s fight against food insecurity.
“We also recognize the significance of President Tinubu administration’s eight priority areas running in tandem with the Global Alliance in its effort to stamping out hunger and poverty.
President Tinubu’s vision to bolster agricultural productivity and enhance food security through innovative and sustainable approaches is a testament to his resolve to elevate Nigeria’s global standing.
