First Lady ends working visit to Kwara, departs for Abuja

The First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, yesterday, ended her three-day working visit to Kwara State with a tour of the state’s garment factory, the biggest of its kind in the country.

There, she interacted with workers, urging them to make the most of the foresight of the governor.

“What your governor has done is to create opportunities for enterprise and productive engagement of youths and women. I want you to work hard and become successful. I’m here purposely to encourage you to make this a huge success for yourself and your state,” she said in Yoruba Language.

Her aircraft left Gen Tunde Idiagbon International Airport at exactly 2:22 p.m., followed shortly by the wife of the Vice President, Nana Shettima and her entourage.

The third day of the visit began with the launch of the Free to Shine Campaign, an initiative of the Organisation of African First Ladies (OAFLAD) that is mobilising support to end new HIV infections and protect children and women.

The first two days of the visit were spent inaugurating iconic projects of Governor AbdulRazaq’s administration, leading the groundbreaking for another one, and visiting a few others.
