Forget all the speculations that have been flying around, concerning the forthcoming 50th birthday celebration of Toyin Saraki. The ELITES can now reveal that Mrs. Saraki, the founder of Wellbeing Foundation Africa, will be celebrating her 50th birthday on September 6, 2014 by putting smiles on the faces of the needy in Kwara.
Sources revealed that though there are a couple of other events scheduled for the landmark celebration, the main event for her is that which will be hosted by Alaafia Kwara, an initiative she established as First Lady of Kwara, and which she has sustained over the years.
We also have it on good authority that later that day, the cream of Nigerian political class will be heading to Kwara as her husband, Senator Abubakar Bukola Saraki has planned a mega event in her honour.
That is not all, our sources say that friends of Mrs. Saraki, who is a Goodwill Ambassador of the International Conference of Midwives (ICM) and has been applauded globally for her immense interventions in Maternal and Child Health, are putting together


another ceremony in one of the world's famous capitals. This event, we gathered, will be attended by renowned world citizens and celebrities.


A lady of sartorial style and elegance, Toyin Saraki is the daughter of boardroom guru, the Otunba Adekunle Ojora and Erelu Oodua, Ojuolape Ojora. Beyond her aristocratic pedigree, she also belongs to the class of Nigeria's most prominent women of substance. It is a reputation she has earned as well.
