“A total of N1,900,000,000 will be disbursed across the nation. The RHI Coordinators in the 36 federation states, the FCT and DEPOWA, have received N50 million each, of which N200,000 will be distributed today to each beneficiary.

“I commend all our State First Ladies/RHI State Coordinators and partners for making this day a reality.

“I congratulate all our senior citizens who have been selected as beneficiaries. I urge you to remember to prioritise your health even as we all enjoy and celebrate the festive season. Eat well, stay hydrated, and exercise – like walking and getting adequate rest. Spend quality time with loved ones, and do what you enjoy and make you happy.”

Speaking on behalf of the beneficiaries, Alhaji Alabi said the money was coming at the right time, saying, “We give thanks to Allah and Her Excellency Oluremi Tinubu for the gift. I confirm that I got the N50,000. This will be used to purchase foodstuffs and take care of my children. May God bless Oluremi and her husband.”
