Queen Zaynab Otiti Obanor’s Milk of Kindness

Published

on

Wealth is nothing if it cannot be used for the advancement of society and mankind. This age-long wise saying is not strange to Queen Zaynab Otiti Obanor.

In fact, she hates seeing other people languishing in penury, she tries anything possible to impact in people close to her and the entire humanity. 

She is recognised as someone whose love for fellow human beings beggars description.

The beautiful woman has joined the growing number of privileged individuals in the country, who are complementing the efforts of the governments across the country to lessen the burdens of the citizenry occasioned by the outbreak of the Corona virus, otherwise known as COVID 19, which is sweeping across the globe.

In line with her wonted fellow-feeling and abiding commitment to giving back to the society that has given her fame, Otiti Obanor through her foundation, Queen Zaynab Foundation, QZF is donating 10,000 naira  to 10, 000 people across Nigeria towards alleviating the biting hunger in the country.

While giving out the money to less privilege Nigerian families. She said ‘’ We hope by providing the basic needs available to these individuals the ability to stay home and not been forced to go on the street will be lessened. Proper hygiene, self- preservation and isolation is important at this time to contain the spread of COVID-19. We are hopeful and prayerful that this pandemic will be over soon without more causalities”

She also stressed further saying ‘’ This issue has shown that Nigerians have sense of community as we have seen how able and good people have come to over the last few weeks to render support to the affected and less fortunate. No individual can do it all but we can all collectively help those who will struggle to survive during this period. As we look forward to better days ahead.

But you will be wrong if you label it a ceremonial affair, as the light-skinned businesswoman has also been ‘secretly’ involved in philanthropic gestures.

Her foundation in the past has empowered the less-privileged children in Nigeria, regardless of their cultural and religious affiliations.

Dr. Babatunde Okewale

In line with its commitment to deliver total healthcare to its patrons and patients and etched a permanent smile on the faces of families, St. Ives Hospital recently celebrated a landmark three thousand (3000) in vitro fertilization, IVF births. The hospital, which is fast becoming synonymous with IVF success, has continued to record ground breaking acclaim with its patients in its assisted reproductive technology initiative.
Many Nigerians who hitherto believed that their dreams of becoming parents via the IVF route can only be realized abroad are now the ones recommending the hospital to others in the same situation as themselves. The 3000 births success represents one of the highest rates in the medical industry in Nigeria.
St. Ives hospital started out in 1996, with the family as the area of focus, dedicating its service to women, children and the family at large. Overtime, in 2007, it delved into fertility as a core area of competence and has since distinguished itself as the hospital of choice for those who are seeking the fruit of the womb. Among its outstanding feats was the delivery of a set of twins by a 68-year-old lady, which went on to be recorded as the oldest IVF mother in Africa.
The hospital, whose team is led by Dr. Babatunde Okewale, the founder and Chief Medical Director has continued to grow in leaps and bounds with presence at Ikeja, Ikoyi, Akowonjo, all in Lagos State and Abeokuta in Ogun State. The FESTAC branch of the hospital is planned for opening in the third quarter of 2024. One of the outstanding features of the hospital is the fact that there is a medical consultant on seat at each of its hospital branches.
