Atiku and Obasanjo Reunite at WOTCLEF’s 25th Anniversary
At the 25th anniversary of the Women Trafficking and Child Labour Eradication Foundation (WOTCLEF) held in Abuja, Atiku Abubakar, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), reunited with his former boss, former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
WOTCLEF, an organization founded by Atiku’s wife, Mrs Titi Abubakar, has long championed the fight against human trafficking and child labour across Nigeria, and the event drew prominent figures in support of its mission.
Atiku expressed his joy at reuniting with Obasanjo, describing the experience as both meaningful and humbling.
He also took a moment to appreciate Obasanjo’s steadfast support for the foundation, recognizing how the former president’s dedication has greatly helped WOTCLEF’s efforts to tackle social injustices and uplift vulnerable populations in Nigeria.
In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Atiku captured his feelings about the occasion, sharing how walking beside Obasanjo at the celebration felt like a significant moment.
He acknowledged that Obasanjo’s ongoing commitment has been a pillar for WOTCLEF, enabling the foundation to continue its work in addressing critical issues affecting women and children.
The anniversary event itself was filled with speeches and activities reflecting WOTCLEF’s 25 years of impact.
Since its inception, the foundation has provided aid, education, and advocacy, seeking to empower those who are often overlooked.
It has been reported that a Nigerian won the 2026 Spelling Bee World Championship, which was held in Shanghai, China. The winner, Chinedu Great Okdediachi, has now returned home to Delta State after his victory.
It can be noted that the student had already emerged as one of the Gold Award winners in the Middle School Group category.
“Congratulations once again, Chinedu! Your success continues to inspire young Nigerians to pursue excellence through education. Welcome home, Champion!”
The young star has made Nigeria proud by winning the international competition.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has stated that his administration’s economic reforms have helped stabilise Nigeria’s economy and placed the country on a path toward steady growth.
He said “My reforms have stabilised Nigeria’s economy and put it on a path of steady growth.”
The President added that the reforms are creating more opportunities for development across the country.
However, many Nigerians reacted online, with some questioning the impact of the reforms and saying they have yet to experience the positive effects.
Nigerian politician and FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, has said that he is aware many civil servants do not like him.
He shared that he understands why he is unpopular among some civil servants, explaining that funds previously spent on unnecessary conferences are now being redirected to road construction projects.
He said “Some people say conferences for corruption and I say what is that? You are going for conferences to do what? These are ways government funds are being diverted. I say put this money in this road here and the people will get the impact.”
