Igho Charles Sanomi, Grand Patron of GIPLC, emphasized the importance of selfless giving, saying, “True giving is about transformation, not recognition.” He extended his appreciation to anonymous donors, including the Abdulkabir Aliu Foundation, a longstanding supporter of GIPLC’s mission.
“Our heartfelt appreciation to every anonymous donor who has stepped forward to support a cause that embodies the very essence of humanity, giving hope where it is needed most,” Sanomi said. “Today, we celebrate not just the power of generosity but also the power of unity. Through your selfless contributions, a pair of conjoined twins, two innocent lives bound together by fate, has been given a chance at a brighter, healthier future.
Sanomi also reflected on his father’s legacy of kindness, stressing that supporting vulnerable children is a continuation of the values he upheld. “My father dedicated his life to service and compassion. On this day, as we remember him, we also reaffirm our commitment to helping those in need. This is about giving back to life itself.”

The National Coordinator of GIPLC, Nuhu Kwajafa, noted that his organization has been at the forefront of medical interventions for children with critical health conditions for 19 years, raising over $7 million during this period. He encouraged Nigerians to support vulnerable children in any way possible, saying, “It doesn’t always have to be money. Sometimes, just offering your time or a simple act of kindness can make a difference.”
Looking ahead, Kwajafa revealed that GIPLC is setting its sights on establishing a specialised children’s hospital in Nigeria. “The high cost of flying children abroad for medical procedures has prompted the organisation to collaborate with its partners, including the Dickson Sanomi Foundation and Abu Kabil Aliou Foundation, to set up a facility in Abuja. We hope to launch this campaign by 2027 or 2028.”
The conjoined twins received a donation of₦118 million, while several other children were granted between₦1 million and₦50 million for life-saving surgeries, including treatments for cancer, kidney transplants, hip surgeries, and bone marrow transplants. The father of the conjoined twins, Mohammad Ashiru, expressed his gratitude to the DSF, GIPLC, and others, saying, “You have made life worth living for my children.
