GOV SANWO-OLU AT 10TH YEAR REMEMBRANCE FIDAU OF LATE ALHAJA ABIBATU MOGAJI AT DE BLUE ROOF, LTV, IKEJA, ON THURSDAY, 15TH JUNE 2023

 
Today at the 10th year remembrance Fidau prayer organized in memory of business magnate and H.E President Bola Tinubu's mother, Alhaja Abibatu Ashabi Mogaji, I urged everyone to emulate the good virtues she espoused and also be agents of change in their immediate communities.

Late Alhaja Mogaji was a woman of tremendous grace, and resilience, a staunch advocate for the welfare and development of the grassroots, and a trailblazer for breaking barriers for women to take up leadership roles in the business circle. 

Joined by dignitaries, market leaders, and clerics, we paid tribute to a remarkable woman. We offered prayers for her soul and celebrated her immense contributions.

I am grateful to all attendees for honouring her legacy.
