Few weeks into her new life as second wife to Governor of Bauchi State, Senator Bala Mohammed, Hajiya Mariya Bala Muhammed has started endearing herself to the good people of the state.

Some days ago, the pretty woman stormed an orphanage in Makaranta Malam Kawu area of the Bauchi Metropolis where she donated clothes to over 100 orphans to assuage their sufferings.

While presenting the items to the beneficiaries, Hajiya Mariya noted that orphans and the less privileged children are among the voiceless and vulnerable groups in the society thus they must be look after.

She emphasised on the importance of quality education to ensure that they also have a brighter future.

According to the Governor’s wife, there are several brilliant and intelligent children among these orphans but unfortunately some of them have to drop out of schools due to various challenges including access to fund to enjoy quality education.

She promised to do more to lift many underprivileged out of their present condition.
