Mrs. Uju Kennedy, who visited the NCWS headquarters in Abuja, described Adamu-Lau, as a mother and a woman committed to uplifting Nigerian women.
She stated, “She was a mother and sister, who was passionate towards uplifting Nigerian women and ending all forms of violence and harmful practices against women and girls.
Also that, “She was a humble and compassionate Mother and Sister whose earnest pursuit as the leader of the Council is to ensure the upliftment of the lives of the gender to enable them attain their optimum height in life”.
The minister, has therefore urged the NCWS members to emulate Adamu-Lau’s exemplary lifestyle by working together to ensure that women occupy their quota for the socio-economic development of the nation.
While commiserating with fellow Nigerian women, family and friends over the loss, the Minister urged them all to take solace in God as death is inevitable and will come when it will come.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that Adamu-Lau died in the early hours of Wednesday after a brief illness in Kebbi and had since been buried in her hometown In Lau, in Taraba state.
She emerged the National President in April 2022 after winning the election unopposed.
She has initiated a lot of empowerment programmes that ameliorated the sufferings of many indigent women across the nation.
She has also embarked on several exercises on ending Gender Based Violence (GBV) and harmful traditional practices against women and girls all over the country.
