Beyond the monetary contribution, the First Lady also provided relief materials, including 2,000 bags of 50kg rice, clothing, and shoes. She expressed deep sympathy for the victims, offering prayers for healing, comfort, and renewed strength.
“As a mother, I share in your pain and grief over those irreplaceable losses and devastations. I believe we can all collectively help these victims in their various communities,” she said.

Niger State Governor Umaru Bago, who received the donation, thanked the First Lady for what he described as a timely and impactful gesture. He noted that the state has been grappling with multiple crises including floods, banditry, fire outbreaks, boat accidents, and insurgency.
