Drama Unfolds at Remi Tinubu Empowerment Programme in Rivers State
A recent empowerment programme in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, was briefly disrupted when a group of women staged a walkout in protest. The event, organized by the Renewed Hope Initiative and sponsored by the First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, aimed to distribute empowerment items to 500 women across the state.
The walkout occurred when Theresa Ibas, the wife of the Rivers State Administrator, was invited to deliver a speech. The women in attendance insisted that they wanted to hear from the wife of the suspended governor instead, expressing their dissatisfaction with the current administration.
Despite the brief disruption, the empowerment programme was able to continue, with the distribution of items to the women in attendance. The programme is part of a larger initiative aimed at supporting women and promoting sustainable development in the state.
The incident highlights the importance of understanding the needs and expectations of the target audience in any programme or event. It also underscores the need for effective communication and stakeholder engagement to prevent such disruptions in the future.
