While speaking with newsmen during the presentation of international passport and other travelling documents to Mrs. Mistura Oluwafunmilola Abdullah at her residence; No. 19, Temitope Street, Boluwaji Area, Ibadan, Oyo State, Alhaji Folaranmi disclosed that the gesture was borne out of the woman’s commitment, dedication and submission to the work of Allah since two decades ago.

He revealed how he refused to bow to temptations and pressures from people to give the slot to his wife, who has not performed the holy pilgrimage to Mecca.

“I had to contend with so many pressures, but I thank Allah that His will has been done and my mind is at rest.
