“We have come to visit and see your well being. NAFOWA is a non governmental association that had visited internally displaced persons in Bama last year where it distributed food and non food items worth  millions of naira. We are here today to donate food items like rice, beans, milk, milo, magi, school bags, bed sheets, plates and so on to orphanage homes in Makurdi.”
While urging them to be obedient to their elders and teachers, the NAFOWA National President enjoined the orphans to always take good care of themselves and be people of good character as future leaders of the country.
In their separate responses, Mr. Musa Abraham, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development and Coordinator of Gidan Bege House of Hope, David Audu said they were overwhelmed by the donation and prayed God to abundantly bless NAFOWA and the Nigerian Air Force family at large.
