December 23, 2015 – Pictures: Nigerian Senator Buys Christmas Gifts For Anambra Widows, Tells Them To Adopt Jesus Christ As Their Husband
Senator representing Anambra-North Senatorial District, Stella Oduah yesterday, December 19, presented gift materials to dozens of widows who assembled at the Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Odoakpu, Onitsha in Anambra State.
Ms Oduah used the event to provide relief from the prevailing harsh economic situation in the country to the women of her constituency especially for the yuletide season.
According to Reverend Father Uzor of Sacred Heart, Senator Oduah’s generosity, selflessness and works of charity started long before she got engaged in politics and therefore could be said to be an apostolate.
Amidst dozens of widows who gathered to receive the gifts, the senator exhorted the widows not to lose hope.
She asked them to adopt Jesus Christ as their husband who is not only the giver of life but one who can take away life as he pleases.
Oduah said she remains optimistic about making life better for all the people domiciled in her Senatorial District, particularly the widows and the less privileged people during this yuletide season.
Ms. Oduah who is also a Princess, assured her constituents that the exercise will be a continuous one.
Oduah recently had her election to the Nigerian Senate upheld, in a period when political heavyweights in the opposition party are being thrown out of office.

Senator Stella Oduah has done a great things to those suffering widows in her Senatorial area. The princess remembered the poor and the suffering widows in her constituent on a special occasion called Christmas. Thank you senator for spending token of your loot from the national cake. Honestly, I think you have done a wonderful thing for remembering the needy most especially helpless widows in your area. Most of our people will not be facing such hardship and abject poverty if our leaders are compassionate, honest, and pathrotic leaders. These wonderful widows are supposed to be getting good allowances and care from their children who are supposed to have good paying jobs or lucrative businesses of their own. Corruption has derived millions of our youth such economic opportunities. Today, we have over 80% unemployment rate among Nigerian youths, they are unable to meet up with their own needs talkless of taking good care of their helpless parents. If we all support PMB admistration war on corruption, mismanagement and looting of national treasure, Nigeria will be a better place for us and Many unborn generations. But if we allow greed to overtake our conscious and pathrotic hearts of selfless service to our people, the worse is yet to come. Kudos to Senator Oduah for showing compassion and helping hands to our poor widows on a special occasion like this.
