| Yan Baba |
Comedian Yan Baba is not just a comedian but his generosity and kindness makes him undisputed.
Its believed that in life, we give not because we have much, rather giving is a lifestyle we should develop. As arranged, Comedian Yan Baba and entourage moved out with a simple goal and mindset, which we believe is for the cause and betterment of Humanity #GivingBack.
Many chose Religion, others chose selfishness. But Here is a man who chose Humanity above all. There is indeed nothing as fulfilling as putting a smile on someone's face and Comedian Yan Baba and his team made it possible on this Charity mission
This action actually brought so much respect for Yan Baba.
God bless everyone involved in this! Amen

At the end of the day, its not about what you have, or even what you have accomplished. It's about who you've lifted up, who you've made better. It's about what you've given back"-- Denzel Washington

The Extended Hands Foundation, a non-governmental organisation with sponsorship from NNPC/SNEPCo completed the successful repair of 35 Vesico Vaginal Fistula (VVF) patients in Kebbi State. The pool effort took place at the Ministry of Women Affairs & Social Development VVF Center in Gesse, Birin-Kebbi and received the co-operation of the Kebbi State Government.
Led by the founder Stephanie Linus, the Extended Hands Foundation team was received by the Governor of the state Dr. Abubakar Bagudu and the First Lady Dr. Zainab Bagudu. They both paid visits to the women at the VVF Center, showing their support for the cause. All the repairs have been completed successfully and the women are recovering well.
Stephanie Linus, who spent some time with the women at the VVF Center during the course of the exercise, expressed her appreciation to the sponsors of the pool effort – NNPC/SNEPCo for investing in this cause. She also added that this was the second time the foundation was carrying out such an exercise in Kebbi state.
The team of medical staff was led by Dr Sa’ad Idris, a seasoned VVF Surgeon and former Commissioner for Health in Zamfara State with over 20 years experience in the field. He was assisted by Dr Abubakar Bawa and other doctors and nurses at the VVF Center. Against the backdrop of her Child Bride and Fistula advocacy movie, DRY, Stephanie Linus has been taking the message of restoration and hope to real women suffering from VVF. This pool effort goes a long way to show that DRY is more than just a movie, but a tool for touching the lives of women actually living with this condition.
