Aisha Yesufu's Criticism

During a meeting with the president, she discussed ways to create jobs for youths and support women and children affected by economic hardship. Okonjo-Iweala emphasized that her conversation with Tinubu focused on strengthening women's empowerment, fostering digital trade, and stimulating Nigeria's economy ³.
Different Perspectives
