By Victor Ahiuma-Young

WIFE of Edo State governor, Mrs. Iara Oshiomhole, has visited four orphanages in Benin City as part of her efforts at identifying with the needy and less privileged in the society with a view to offering assistance.

According to Mrs Oshiomhole, identifying with the needy and less privileged in the society was a fulfilment of her personal dreams.

In a statement by Executive Director, Media Affairs, Governor’s Office, Mr. John Mayaki, she said, “Taking time out of office schedule to access the living conditions at the orphanages will provide a first-hand information of their needs and set the tone for the advancement of the Edo Task Force on Orphanages.”

She expressed confidence that the team would do its best to improve the standard of living at the orphanages.
