Ummul-khairi’s father, Malam Ibrahim, is unable to attend due to health issues and is represented by his brother at the ceremony. Expressing his gratitude on behalf of the family, Malam Ibrahim’s brother, thanks Hon. Ofoni for his generosity and support, highlighting the impact this recognition will have on Ummul-khairi’s future aspirations.
