The wife of the Plateau Governor, Mrs Helen Mutfwang, on Wednesday visited hospitals and gave gifts to babies born on New Year’s Day.

Mrs Mutfwang, who was at three selected public hospitals, said that the newborns brought tremendous joy to the world, should be celebrated, and their parents given support.

The governor’s wife described the birth of a child as one of life’s most beautiful gifts, and communities should celebrate new beginnings and the infinite potential each child holds.

She congratulated the mothers and encouraged those waiting delivery to give it all it takes to birth their babies when it is time.

Some of the mothers who spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) said they were overwhelmed with joy to see the governor’s wife and added that the cash and provisions were timely.
