“Your repeated statement that you were doing it on behalf of the First Lady of Nigeria, Her Excellency Senator Oluremi Tinubu, CON, underscores your deep commitment to the Renewed Hope Initiative,” Hajia Ododo said. “That initiative has become a beacon of hope for countless Nigerians, bringing smiles to faces and joy to homes.”

Hajia Ododo prayed for continued strength, wisdom, and divine guidance for Senator Oluremi Tinubu, whose motherly example and philanthropic efforts have inspired women across the country.

“Her Excellency, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, is not only the mother of the nation, she is the mother of philanthropy in Nigeria,” she said. “Her empathy, grace, and purpose continue to touch lives across all regions.”

The wheelchairs were distributed to physically challenged individuals in Kogi State as part of a broader effort to enhance inclusion and empower the less privileged.
