The Minister of FCT, Bala Mohammed announced this at the construction site of the project in Abuja. The project is to attract more foreign direct investment to the FCT.

9-YEAR-OLD AND 22-YEAR OLD GIRLS NEED N2.5M TO BATTLE CANCER

Nine-year-old Eniola Adepitan and 22-year-old Omolara Onibudo are not relatives, but they both suffer from cancer and need help urgently for trearment. Eniola suffers from cancer of the bone, while Omolara has cancer of the lip. Hundreds of thousands of naira has been spent on them yet their problem persists.

 According to Omolara, “In May 2010, I discovered that I had a wound on my upper lip then I started bleeding from the affected lip. I sought medical attention at the Epe General Hospital, Epe, Lagos State, before I was referred to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital. “After undergoing different tests and medical examinations, I was diagnosed with cancer of the lips. Due to the fact that my parents are aged and have since stopped working, my siblings are the ones doing the running around for me. 

They have spent hundreds of thousands of naira they borrowed from people and unfortunately, there is no hope of getting more money.” “The last money we paid at the hospital was N150, 000 for drugs, tests and x-rays and it’s almost exhausted. The doctors would in the next few days cut some samples of my lips to enable them to carry out some medical examinations preparatory to surgery.” Omolara, who dropped out of secondary school in 2010 as a result of the problem is appealing to the general public for financial support.
