Oluremi Tinubu Blasts Buhari’s Government – This is NOT the Change Promised

Wife of All Progressives Congress national leader, Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu, Senator Oluremi Tinubu has accused the APC-led federal government of not bringing forth the change promised to Nigerians during the last general election.

Remi Tinubu who said she was speaking for the women took the floor at the plenary session of the 8th National Assembly on Tuesday to register her dissatisfaction while alleging that President Muhammadu Buhari has sidelined women in the 2016 budget.

She however, commended Senate President Bukola Saraki on his efforts towards empowering women in the country in contrast to the Federal Government.
