Adeniji was in Kaduna to flag off the First phase of the Value for Money (VFM) and explore collaborative opportunities to advance educational initiatives and ensure sustainable progress in the school feeding program across the state.
According to her, the visit which marked the second stage of the nationwide VFM study underscores the presidency commitment to fostering dialogue and cooperation for the benefit of every child in Kaduna.
