According to the delegation, Ndokwa women spoke with a unified voice, stressing that the greatness of Ndokwa Nation is not in doubt, but emphasized the need for a mutually beneficial partnership with the state government aimed at achieving sustainable development and improved revenue generation for the area.
The delegation praised Deaconess Tobore Oborevweri for her humility and leadership qualities, likening her to the Biblical figure “Mother Ruth.” They expressed confidence that under her maternal guidance, Ndokwa women would contribute meaningfully to the long-awaited prosperity of their people.
Members of the delegation also described the First Lady as warm, receptive, and encouraging, noting that she shared assurances and optimistic projections for the future of Ndokwa Nation.
