Mrs Tinubu, who was received by Governor Hope Uzodinma and his wife, Chioma Uzodinma, called for more support for women in the state.
She urged the women to support their governor’s bid for a second term in the November governorship election.
“We are strongest when we stand together; let us commit ourselves to a future where every woman’s voice is heard.
“Every woman’s contributions must be valued. I am proud to tell you that every woman’s dreams are within reach,” she said.
The first lady reiterated the commitment of the Federal Government to making Nigeria a prosperous nation that its citizens would be proud of.
