The visit underscored PNGI’s commitment to standing with leaders in moments of personal grief, while honoring the enduring legacy of a woman whose life was marked by discipline, service, and moral strength.

Led by Acting Chairman Hon. Faisal Lawal, the PNGI delegation described Mama Maria as a beacon of virtue whose influence shaped generations.
