Life changing, as Bello’s gesture not only offered financial hope but also helped reunite the couple.
Former Executive Governor of Kogi State, Hon. Yahaya Bello also known as white lion, has provided life-transforming assistance to an Abuja-based sugarcane hawker identified as Esther, an FCT native of Gbagyi origin.
In a heartwarming encounter captured in a now-viral Facebook video, Bello approached Esther during her hawking routine, made inquiries about her family situation, and offered financial support and empowerment to improve her life.
Further details emerging from the video reveal that Esther and her husband, Husseini—also a Gbagyi native—had been separated due to financial hardship. Despite having three children together, the couple had not been able to officially wed, which contributed to strain in their relationship.
Observers are now describing the moment as a “destiny encounter,” as Bello’s gesture not only offered financial hope but also helped reunite the couple.
The comments section of the viral video is filled with praise for Bello, with many social media users applauding his humanitarian spirit and commending him for “bringing the family back together.”
The couple, visibly emotional, expressed deep gratitude following the unexpected intervention.
