First Lady Senator Oluremi Tinubu pledged an additional one billion naira through her Renewed Hope Initiative to support national efforts against tuberculosis during the 2025 World Tuberculosis Day Community Outreach in Sauka Village, Abuja. Highlighting World Health Organization statistics showing that tuberculosis claims a life in Nigeria every seven minutes, the First Lady stressed the urgency of early testing, removing social stigma, and expanding free treatment and community healthcare access to eliminate the disease by 2030. Supporting this commitment, Minister of State for Health and Social Welfare Dr. Iziaq Salako affirmed the federal government's dedication to boosting healthcare services, while Senator Tinubu promised to address the Sauka community's request for a local primary health center through the health ministry.
