President Bola Tinubu has directed that 20 percent of the palliatives in food intervention by the Federal Government be rooted through religious organisations and traditional institutions. 

Vice President Kashim Shettima, who announced the president’s directive on Tuesday while delivering his address at a summit of faith leaders on nutrition in Abuja, also disclosed that the president has also directed that 20 percent of the funds approved for the school feeding programme, be channelled through the Office of the Minister of Budget and Economic Planning to the religious bodies.
