“Today, I speak to you not as the chief Servant of the people but as your brother, your friend and your ally.

“We are not to console you with words alone, we are here to wipe your tears and replace them with opportunities.

“Let me say it clearly, don’t pity the widows, I empower them.

“Yes! today we share food, clothes and financial support but beyond this, we are laying the foundation for something greater, the support system that includes Skills Training, Access to Healthcare, Small Business Funding and Education for your children.”

The governor thanked his wife, Hajiya Sefinat Ododo for taking the course of the widows in the state as a sacred duty.

He also appreciated the wife of the President, Senator Remi Tinubu for her unwavering commitment to the success and welfare of the women of Kogi State.
