One more reason to Love HAFSAT ABIOLA-COSTELLO

Hafsat Abiola-Costello is one woman who does not need so much of an introduction and this is as a direct result of the person she is and she ideals she stands for.
Her late father was a billionaire but today, Hafsat does not squander her time shopping across the world or acquiring expensive body enhancement and surgery to make her look more appealing to some. Rather, she has become a voice for the voiceless and has so far, remained in the forefront of her campaign to ensure that poverty is reduced to its barest minimum all over the world - especially Nigeria.

She is the founder, Kudirat Initiative for Democracy (KIND) and her job as a human and civil rights campaigner remains an integral part of who she truly is.

In a recent interview with journalists at the Ogun State capital, she had a very integral message for Nigeria's president Goodluck Jonathan and this was how she coined it:

"What I want to say to President Jonathan is that what we can do to honour the heroes past is to make sure that they do not die in vain. Nigerian people are still poor, majority of them are poor today, even more so than in 1993 when he (MKO Abiola) won his election and I hope that President can apply himself to addressing poverty in Nigeria."

It is in this light that she remains one of the women i truly do have a lot of respect for.
