“Saying President Tinubu, has not done anything in the direction of poverty alleviation is not true. The whole purpose of the Renewed Hope Agenda is about poverty alleviation. We have NG-CARES. We have SOLID, which is for internally displaced persons. We have the HOPE package. We have HOPE Education. We have Renewed Hope Baby Support. We have $3.5 billion devoted to poverty alleviation programmes. You can criticize the implementation, but to come and misinform Nigerians and miseducate Nigerians that nothing has been done in that direction is disingenuous, is mischievous, and is not right. That’s not the business of journalists — to misinform the people. You can criticize implementation, but don’t misinform people.” — Reuben Abati
