Some governors' wives prefer ceremonies to making impact, says Afe Babalola

The ABUAD founder lauded the governor’s wife for her level of achievements in academia through her contributions to knowledge in her field of Educational Management which is being acknowledged locally and globally by the impact she makes through her numerous research publications.

Babalola promised to support the governor’s wife’s WAOH project, saying, “I have always been interested in philanthropic activities. I am going to contribute to the pet project now personally and the university will add to it. Do not think you must have billions of Naira before you can help others. Your giving out means a lot.”

Speaking on the WAOH project, the First Lady said, “It’s a new programme where we have registered over 30,000 active and non-active widows and orphans. The WAOH project will afford us the opportunity to touch the lives of vulnerable people in the state. “We have just had our ‘Back to School Programme’ where we gave schoolbags and other educational materials to indigent pupils, the majority of whom are orphans,” she said.All rights reserved.
