Asaba, Delta State – The Delta State Government has warmly welcomed Her Excellency, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, as she embarks on a significant humanitarian mission to support healthcare workers and advance maternal and child health in the South-South region.

During her visit, the First Lady presented 10,000 professional kits, including Crocs and scrubs, to midwives across the South-South geo-political zone.
