September 09, (THEWILL) – Nollywood actress and TV talk show host, Tricia Eseigbe-Kerry, cannot forget the Minister of Women Affairs, Uju Kennedy Ohanenye in a hurry. The actress, who is indebted to the minister for her kindness, posted a lengthy and emotional statement on social media to celebrate her a few weeks after she was appointed minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Unknown to many, Ohanenye, who is also a movie producer, has been a very good friend of the talk show host for a couple of years now. She is not just a good friend but Eseigbe-Kerry also took her like a sister.
Ohanenye has been a pillar of support to Eseigbe-Kerry in her time of need. The politician once offered her friend a plot of land in Abuja many years ago when many were still wishing and struggling to be called landowners.
Being a philanthropist who has built hospitals, health care centres and even paid hospital bills for the less privileged, Ohanenye offered medical assistance to Eseigbe-Kerry when she was trying to get pregnant. Although the latter got married in 2010, she had to wait for 10 years before welcoming her first child.
Ohanenye was worried sick when her friend was trying to conceive, she put her resources together to assist Eseigbe-Kerry so that the cry of a baby can also be heard in her household. She didn’t relent in her efforts until Eseigbe-Kerry eventually became a proud mother of three beautiful girls.
Penning a note to her friend of many years, the actress celebrated Kennedy and revealed that President Bola Tinubu chose the right candidate for the Ministry of Women Affairs. She revealed that Ohanenye’s humanitarian efforts and her love for God earned her a place in the President’s cabinet.
