In a heartwarming gesture, the Market Women and Men Association of Nigeria in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) expressed their warm welcome to the First Lady, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, through a generous donation of tubers of yam, tomatoes, pepper, and onions. This act was not only a gesture of hospitality but also served to formally adopt Mrs. Tinubu as a member of the association, recognizing her positive contributions to the well-being of women across the nation.
Felicia Sani, the National President of the association, highlighted the thriving businesses of market women under the leadership of President Bola Tinubu, attributing their success to the peaceful environment fostered by his administration. She called on the First Lady to continue supporting market women at all levels, providing the necessary resources for business expansion.
Sani emphasized the pivotal role market women play in the nation’s economy, deserving unwavering support to enhance their trades and contribute positively to economic growth. She also urged Nigerians to prioritize actions that promote unity and eschew those that could potentially lead to crises.
Expressing gratitude for the warm reception, Ms. Joy Okosa, Assistant Director in the Women Affairs Secretariat, FCT Administration, conveyed the commitment of the administration to continually support women. The gesture reflects a collective effort to strengthen ties and foster mutual support between the First Lady and the vibrant market community.
