<h4>Providing succour to disabled persons</h4>
<h4></h4>
<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a></strong> reports that foremost thespian and United Nations Ambassador, Halima Abubakar has said that assisting disabled persons and kids in Nigeria and Africa is her priority.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>Under the auspices of her Halima Abubakar Foundation (HAF), the actress recently reached out to over 2,000 disabled persons and kids in Abuja, the capital of Nigeria, donating food items, wheelchairs, crutches and other relief items to the beneficiaries.</p>
<p>She noted that for many years, HAF has been reaching out to hundreds of people in need, and it is her priority to focus on doing more, promising that the corporate social responsibility gestures will continue across Nigeria and Africa.</p>
<p>Abubakar noted that her foundation will partner with appropriate agencies and authorities to help in eradicating the scourge of discrimination facing people with disabilities, and empower them to fulfill their dreams.</p>
<p>&#8220;The stories of many of these people living with disabilities are quite touching. While some of them were born with disabilities, others are mere victims of circumstances that could have been avoided. I&#8217;m glad that most of them are not giving up on their dreams, and it is our responsibility to assist in making it a reality. Indeed, there&#8217;s an ability in disability.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Halima Abubakar Foundation outreach is prepared to extend its tentacles to every region in Nigeria, and some parts of the continent where we have more vulnerable people living with disabilities,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>The Halima Abubakar Foundation Appreciation Outreach kicked-off on Saturday, 27 July, 2024 at PWD Emir Palace, Karonmajigi, FCT Abuja, with over 2,000 beneficiaries in attendance.</p>
<p>During the outreach, the veteran actress and philanthropist gave out wheelchairs, crutches, food stuffs, shoes for students, mats, kettles, kids&#8217; clothes and other relief materials to the beneficiaries.</p>
<p>The charity outreach is Abubakar&#8217;s little way of giving back to the society, particularly at this difficult economic state of the country, and she promised that it will be a continuous exercise. It was coordinated by Ambassador Chris Odey.</p>
<p>The Emir of Karomajiji, Alhaji Suleiman Muhammad, who was present at the event, expressed his delight at the good gesture of Abubakar, describing her as a woman of substance loved by the people. He thereby urged more celebrities to emulate her.</p>
<p>Other dignitaries who graced the event include Muhammad Datani, Sagir Ibrahim, Naziru Muhammad, Adamu Dando, James Lalu and representatives of the Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development.</p>
<p>Halima Abubakar, who is an Ambassador of Peace, said &#8220;I felt really loved by the turnout and the fact that I was able to put smiles on the faces of these people. But this wouldn&#8217;t have been possible without the support of Almighty Allah, my fans and people like Kingsley Mike Azonobi of Domak Group, Millicent Ugwueru of House of Mimie, Divinchy Collections, my Instagram fans and some anonymous donors.</p>
<p>Abubakar was born in Kano but from Kogi State. She attended Ideal primary school in Kano, then studied Sociology at Bayero University, Kano. She is also the CEO of Modehouse Films, a production company that produces movies and gives new faces a chance by putting them in a position to earn a living.</p>
<p>The multiple award-winning thespian has starred in many Nollywood films, some of which include Slip of Fate, Missing Child, Secret Shadows, Ladies Gang, Area Mama, Men in Love, Okafor&#8217;s Law and Love Castle.</p>
