Trefoil Guild joins the fight Against Sexual Assault, Supports Sen. Natasha
In a press release issued on Thursday 13th March 2025, The Trefoil Guild Nigeria, under
the leadership of esteemed Country Chair, Dr. Christie Toby, strongly condemns
all forms of sexual harassment, intimidation, and gender-based violence in any
sector of society, including the highest levels of governance.
She
said ‘We express our deep concern regarding the recent developments involving
Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan and the Senate President, noting that the
allegations of sexual assault and subsequent suspension raise serious questions
about the protection of women's rights and dignity in our nation. ‘The
six-months duration period of suspension and other penalties meted on Senator
Natasha, including the inability of the Senate to listen to the nature of the
sexual allegations case against the senate President raises questions on fair
hearing on the matter’. She added.
Dr.
Christie Toby further said ‘as an organization committed to the empowerment,
protection, and advocacy for women and girls, we stand firmly with Senator
Natasha and all women who suffer in silence due to societal pressures and
systemic injustices. Our guiding principles and objectives emphasize courage,
integrity, and the promotion of a safe and just society for all’.
We call on the relevant authorities to ensure a thorough and
impartial investigation into these allegations. Justice must not only be done
but must be seen to be done. We call for a review of the suspension of Senator
Natasha, and hearing of the sexual allegations issues she has brought to the
senate, which should be televised live by the media, so as to give credibility
and fairness on the hearing of case. She should be given a chance to prove her
case.
We urge all women, civil society organizations, and
concerned Nigerians to continue speaking up against gender-based violence,
harassment, and discrimination in all its forms, they should never succumb to
any form of intimidation when it comes to speaking out against sexual
harassment. We must break the culture of silence and speak out.
The Country Chair, affirmed that the Trefoil Guild Nigeria
remains unwavering in its commitment to creating a society where women can
live, work, and lead without fear. We stand together, and we stand strong.
This unified front demonstrates the Guild's commitment to
positive change and highlights their support for those who champion important
causes. It is their hope that together, they can help make a difference

medical services to over 25000 people across the Bassa/Jos North Federal

is evident in his words: ‘when I see anything passing I will grab and bring it to
my people’
The success of this outreach program is
a testament to Hon. Asama’s dedication to his constituents and his vision for a
healthier, more prosperous community
The outreach includes addressing
glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness often undetected until it’s too late.
Over 2,000 medicated glasses and essential eye medications have been freely
distributed to beneficiaries. The program also provides specialized care for
various eye-related illnesses; ensuring residents get the treatment they need.
In his address, Hon. Asama emphasized
the need to prioritize healthcare, especially during these tough economic
times. He stressed that while food and financial support are important, good
health remains fundamental, as only a healthy person can work and support their
family.
He outlined three key motivations
behind this humanitarian intervention which includes: Rising Economic Hardship-
Many can no longer afford quality healthcare, and this initiative eases that
burden.
The Mandate of Representation- As a
people-centered leader, he is committed to delivering programs that truly
impact lives.
A Heart for Humanity- His personal
passion for service drives him to take action where it matters most.
Strengthening Healthcare Institutions: Beyond
the medical outreach, 12 Primary Healthcare Clinics (PHCs) received essential
drugs and supplies to ensure continued access to quality care.
According to Asama Director of Media
Brian Lang the benefiting PHCs are Bassa LGA- Lapape (Jengre), Amo Maikatako,
Binchin, Kisaloi, Kwall, Miango.
Jos North LGA- PHC Ungwan Rukuba, Ali
Kazaure, Angwan Rogo, Targon Regiza, Yelwan Zangam, Tudun Wada.
Additionally, four tertiary health
institutions within the constituency received medical supplies to enhance their
capacity in handling critical cases: Plateau State Specialist Hospital, Bingham
University Teaching Hospital, Jos University Teaching Hospital (JUTH), and Our
Lady of Apostle (Ola Hospital).
Hon Amb. Asama's commitment to his constituency
is truly commendable; his dedication to providing free medical outreach has
earned him widespread praise and recognition. His constituency has rallied
around this initiative, expressing their gratitude and appreciation for the
invaluable services offered.
The outreach program has touched the
lives of countless individuals, providing access to essential healthcare
services that might otherwise be inaccessible.
The positive impact of this initiative is undeniable, as it addresses
critical health needs and promotes well-being within the constituency.
Indeed Hon Asama's unwavering
commitment to his constituents' health and humanitarian need are a testament to
his leadership and compassion. This selfless act of service has earned him the
admiration and respect of the Plateau people and Nigeria at large, solidifying
his reputation as a champion for the people.
More so the success of Hon Asama's free
medical outreach program is a testament to the power of constituency engagement
and the importance of accessibility. As he always said his doors are open any
day, any time.

sacred month of Ramadan, the Member Representing Bassa/Jos North Federal
Constituency in the National Assembly, Hon. AMB. Daniel Asama, has extended a
heartfelt gesture to his constituents by distributing essential food items to
help cushion the effects of economic hardship during this fasting period.
The Ramadan support package, which includes grains and

and needy, benefit the most from this act of kindness.
Hon. Asama, while addressing the team of selected community
leaders tasked with overseeing the distribution process, urged them to
prioritize equity, fairness, and compassion in reaching out to those who need
this support the most. He emphasized that the spirit of Ramadan is deeply
rooted in selflessness, generosity, and care for others, especially those
struggling under the weight of prevailing economic challenges.
"As we observe this sacred season, it is important that
we demonstrate true brotherhood by standing with one another. This gesture is
just a modest contribution to support our Muslim brothers and sisters as they
fast and pray for peace, prosperity, and progress for our constituency and our
dear Nation. I call on the distribution leaders to ensure fairness and
transparency, targeting the most vulnerable in our communities,” Hon. Daniel
stated.
He further assured constituents that his office is actively
seeking additional partnerships and support from friends, organizations, and
relevant agencies to expand the intervention and reach more households during
this holy month.
This effort is part of Hon. Daniel Asama's continuous
commitment to the welfare of his people, fostering Religious harmony, and
promoting Community development beyond Political and Religious lines.

favor to all.

RT. HON. DEWAN FELICITATES WITH MUSLIM UMMAH A ON RAMADAN FAST
Dewan praised Muslim members of the House of Assembly for
supporting his tutelage and working assiduously for the success of the state
government, and further admonished them and the entire Muslims in the state to
use the fasting period and pray for the peace, unity and progress of Plateau
and the entire country for God to help us overcome our myriad challenges; and
to also be their brothers' keepers by extending benevolence to those in need
and the poor so as to ameliorate their plight and fast smoothly.
He also called on the entire state irrespective of party and
religious inclination to unite and extend the hands of friendship to the Muslim
Ummah too as they continue with their
fasting, saying nothing should be done to discourage them or cause them break
their fast. And that whatever can be done to help them succeed, should be done
because they are our brothers and sisters.
He finally prayed for God's strong bond of love and unity
amongst Plateau citizens to be their brothers' keepers and work towards the
progress and prosperity of the state.
