She stated that the governor has been doing well since he came into power and therefore deserves all the necessary support to boost his “New Abia” agenda.
“Anything we can do to support this government to achieve the vision of a new Abia, we will do it” she said.
Speaking also, Ferdinand Ekeoma, the Special Adviser on Media And Publicity to the Abia state governor, described the initiative as a welcome development which is commendable and should be encouraged by all.

“Anything that has to do with the empowerment of our people, the government of Dr Alex Otti will always cue in”‘ he added.
Grace Ogbonna from Ohafia LGA who has been a widow for 23 years, expressed gratitude to Annie’s Hope foundation for remembering the widows and prayed that God will continue blessing the founder.
