OKOWA: Remember Maryam Babangida vanguardnews

Like Greek goddess, Helen of Troy, death has since the 27th of December 2009 covered Maryam’s eyes. Her body is entombed under the foothills of Minna, Niger State where she has returned and emptied into vanity dust.

One of Okowa’s most dutiful cabinet members, Chief James Augoye, Commissioner for Works, noted that the road was in a sorry state and impassable before the intervention of the state government which awarded the contract for the reconstruction on the 27th of March 2018. When her husband became the head of state in 1985, Maryam assumed the position of First Lady hitherto anonymous and colourless in Nigeria ‘s chronology of power.

Moved by the exemplary standing of the late Anioma foremost daughter, Okowa, also an illustrious son of the land, saw the necessity of immortalizing Maryam.The Maryam Babangida Way is easily the most iconic road in Asaba today.
