  • The Director of Women Empowerment and Legal Aid, Mrs Funmi Falana SAN, has called on the Federal Government to initiate policies and programmes that will provide relief to Nigerians and ease the burden of the current economic hardship in the country.

The article from MSN discusses Nigerian human rights lawyer Femi Falana's call for government support for orphanages to be included in both national and state budgets. Falana highlighted the dire situation of many orphanages in Nigeria, which are struggling due to insufficient funding and support. He emphasized the need for these institutions to receive regular financial assistance to ensure they can adequately care for the children. This plea comes in light of the economic challenges and the increasing number of orphans due to various crises, including conflicts and poverty. Falana's advocacy aims to address the welfare of these vulnerable children by ensuring that orphanages are not left to rely solely on charity and donations, which can be inconsistent.
