The pet project of the late former First Lady, Mrs Stella Obasanjo, has announced the programme for the 20th anniversary remembrance of the deceased Nigerian former First Lady.
The childcare trust was initiated by Mrs. Obasanjo to support challenged children. It has been sustained and supported through the years by associates of the former First Lady and believers in her dream.
A statement signed by Ms Lucy Dickson, CCT Programme Coordinator on behalf of the planning committee of the programme, states that the memorial remembrance will hold between Monday November 10 and Sunday November 16 2025 in Abuja.
“On Monday November 10, there will be an essay competition with the topic, ‘Handicapping the Handicapped: Problems of Society’s Negative Attitude and Labelling.’ Five selected schools—three government-owned and two private JSS 3 schools have been scheduled to participate in the competition.
“An awareness Walk as well as presentations by Special Schools at CCT, Bwari, follows on Tuesday 11 and Friday 14 November 2025, respectively. There will be games, drama, exhibition, speeches, presentation of gifts to winners, and support for CCT, Bwari in the areas of Health, Education, Economic Development, among others”.
Ms Dickson said it will be a week-long activity, with a thanksgiving service to be held at CCT, Bwari, on Sunday, November 16, 2025.
Members of the public are invited to join the memorial and to support the cause of the handicapped in the society.
