Habiba Albarka Ahmed, a vibrant and enterprising young woman, was left with a life-altering injury after a hit-and-run accident in Unguwan Rimi, Kaduna State, in 2001. The perpetrator, who was arrested and later released on bail to his influential boss, left Habiba with an amputated leg and a long, arduous journey to justice.
For over 20 years, Habiba has relied on the goodwill of others to survive, and was now homeless because of the economic downturn has made it impossible for her to pay rent, leaving her without a home.
In a heartfelt appeal, Habiba called on Governor Uba Sani to use his office to help her secure the compensation and support she deserves. “I’m not just seeking financial assistance; I’m also seeking justice and accountability for the perpetrator who changed my life forever,” she said.
She also appealed to the Ordinary President, Ahmed Isa, and the National President of the Association of Persons with Special Needs, seeking assistance and support to overcome her challenges.
Habiba’s appeal comes as she reaches out to well-meaning individuals and organizations for support. To help Habiba, you can contact Sarkin Mashi at +2348051790307 or the publisher of http://www.newspanorama.com.ng (News Panorama) at +2348065616566.
