“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.
