Mrs. Alli while speaking at the event, said she took it upon herself to provide essential items and support those in need, having recognised the vulnerability of the elderly.

She added that the distribution of palliatives was aimed at alleviating the hardship faced by the elderly through access to basic necessities and provisions.

The senator’s wife acknowledged the significant role that the elderly played in the society and emphasised the importance of ensuring their well-being as well as dignity.

“Her selflessness and empathy serve as an inspiration to all, reminding us of the importance of reaching out to those in need and extending a helping hand,” they said.
