Mrs Buhari was represented in Maiduguri by the wife of governor of Borno, Hajiya Nana Shettima, who is also the Chairperson of the Distribution of the relief materials.

``God loves charity givers and givers never lack. This I believe should serve as a word of expression to people who give the little they have to the plight of the needy.

``The wife of the president and President Muhammadu Buhari have shown to us true compassion and political will towards the plight of our people who have passed through great hardship.
