• 60 gallons of oil

• 60 boxes of tomato paste

• 40 cartons of Ideal Milk

• 40 cartons of Milo

• ₵10,000 each to 20 affected families

• ₵50,000 to the church community

Her thoughtful gesture not only brought relief to the bereaved families but also served as a reminder that true celebration is often found in giving rather than receiving.

Her choice to dedicate her birthday to comforting grieving families reaffirms those values, portraying her as both a leader and a beacon of hope.
