Vice President Kashim Shettima tells local government chairmen to take responsibility for implementing the federal “Nutrition 774” (N-774) initiative at the grassroots level, according to reports by Vanguard and Premium Times. Speaking to the leadership of ALGON, Shettima says President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to nutrition is a governance directive that should be strengthened and made fully operational. He urges ALGON to ensure full participation in local government structures and committees that support food and nutrition activities, including engagement at community level. The reports describe the vice president’s message as a call for councils to move from planning to practical implementation of nutrition-focused programmes under N-774. Both outlets frame the directive as part of government efforts to improve nutrition outcomes nationwide through local government involvement. No figures, timelines, or specific programme details are reported in the excerpts, but the core emphasis is on council-level leadership, coordination through ALGON, and integration of nutrition activities into community structures.
