The First Lady of Nigeria, Oluremi Tinubu, presented a sum of twenty million Nigerian Naira to Maryam Ibrahim Dan’Azumi, the recent winner of the King Abdulaziz International Qur'anic Competition in Saudi Arabia. This financial support was bestowed upon Maryam at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Tuesday, during a visit led by Gombe State Governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya.
The Governor expressed his gratitude to Ms. Tinubu for her generous contribution, stating that it would significantly aid Maryam's education. Maryam, currently a student at Abubakar Siddiq Community School for Qur'anic Memorisation in Gombe, emerged victorious in the second category of the 46th King Abdulaziz International Qur'an Recitation Competition, held in Makkah, Saudi Arabia.
Her remarkable achievement was marked by a total score of 97.70 marks, reflecting her exceptional skills in Qur'anic memorisation, recitation, Tajweed, and interpretation. Maryam's victory is particularly noteworthy, as it marks the first edition of the 46-year-old competition to admit female contestants.
