No Abia widow will suffer oppression under my watch, says Mrs Otti
Otti announced plans to construct at least 17 additional Dignity Homes before the end of the year, adding that government support would continue to extend beyond housing to economic empowerment.
According to her, the administration has completed and handed over 35 Dignity Homes to indigent widows drawn from the state’s 17 local government areas, with beneficiaries also receiving empowerment packages to support sustainable livelihoods.
She described justice, dignity and economic empowerment as rights rather than privileges, and called on families, traditional institutions, faith-based organisations, civil society groups and the private sector to support efforts to eliminate harmful widowhood practices.
