Mrs Umana, who is the National Coordinator for Niger Delta Youths/Women for Tinubu and Shettima, called on the women to mobilise other women and groups across the state and turn out massively for the APC presidential campaign in Uyo on Monday, January 30.

She assured the woman that the Tinubu administration will not only prioritise the welfare and wellbeing of the women but will also ensure more involvement of women in governance and leadership, adding that the women of Akwa Ibom and Niger Delta at large will benefit immensely from the administration.

Responding on behalf of the group, the coordinator, Lady Grace Usoro said that the courtesy visit was necessary to afford the women an opportunity to express their gratitude to Mrs Umana for extending love to women and children in the state during the last festival period.

Usoro, while describing Mrs Umana as a worthy mother, noted that she was the only woman who cared and showed them, love, during the festive period, adding that they have resolved to rally support for the party because of her good deeds.

She also thanked the Minister for Niger Delta Affairs, Obong Umana Okon Umana for not only working tirelessly for the overall development of the Niger Delta region but also paying particular attention to the women and providing the necessary support through his wife, Pastor Florence.
