Federal Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Dr Betta Edu, has called every Nigerian to do something to contribute their quota to nation-building, rather than fold their hands and complain.
She made the statement during a Raypower current affairs programme, ‘Factfile. Dr Edu said governance is a work in progress and that the country’s problems would not disappear overnight.
She said the different dimensions of poverty would be addressed by different methods because federal government is committed to improving the lives of the average Nigerian.
In her response to the criticism of the authenticity of the social register used by the last administration by many stakeholders, the minister said the Tinubu administration inherited a register that had been compiled over the years, which needed to be updated.
