The lady in picture got her reward of diligence even in the face of wants and deprivation when the governor of Kogi, Alhaji Yahaya Bello became the messenger that was sent in delivery of this woman's reward. He was driving on the street of Abuja and had his eyes rested on this woman with a tray of Sugarcane on her head, with a baby strapped to her back and mercilessly drenched by heavy rain.

He personally had her driven to his house where he handed her to his wife and asked that she be rehabilitated and empowered and the empowerment came instantly.

Most of our listed tasks were acomplished except for the proposed Kogi Mass 2008 which never held due to circumstance beyond our control and delay in the release of the special edition of EbiraView Magazine. All the same, we are planning a bigger MASS for 2009 while the magazine release will be in the second week of January, 2009.
