The wife of the governor of Anambra State, Dr Nonye Soludo has called on Nigerians to always exhibit the spirit of compassion for the less privileged in the society.

Mrs Soludo spoke on the occasion of this year's World Humanitarian Day, which she celebrated with the less privileged, motherless babies and people living with disabilities

She said: "Today, we honour the spirit of compassion that moves people to stand with others in moments of vulnerability, crisis and need.

"Humanitarianism reminds us that every life matters and that our shared humanity calls us to care, support and uplift those who need a helping hand.

"Whether through protecting vulnerable children, supporting women and girls, addressing malnutrition, promoting access to healthcare, or creating opportunities for people to live with dignity, every act of kindness can make a meaningful and lasting difference.

"As we mark this day, let’s remember that humanitarian action is not only about responding to emergencies; it’s also about building communities where no one is left behind."

,She encouraged everyone to look beyond their environment, extend compassion to those around them and become a source of hope wherever they found themselves.

"Always shine your light for the world to see and show a little kindness", she advised.
