Members of the Obedient Movement in Sokoto State extended humanitarian support to over 100 vulnerable patients at Maryam Abacha Women and Children Hospital in commemoration of the birthday of former presidential candidate Peter Obi.

Each beneficiary received a cash donation of ₦5,000 to assist with medical bills, in what the group described as a gesture inspired by Obi’s consistent advocacy for a better and more inclusive Nigeria.

Yawale said, “This is the kind of politics Peter Obi represents: people-centred, compassionate, and impactful. Punch
