The John Oyibokwifi Foundation, a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), has produced and donated 100 school uniforms to Aravwharien Kingdom in Ughelli south local government area of Delta State.
The philanthropic intervention, was in fulfilment of the promise made to the children of Asamana Primary School sighted at the community s riverbank instead of being in school learning.
A post on Facebook by one John Ighoruemu Oyibokwifi, disclosed that the foundation is equally embarking on the water project that would serve the school and the entire community.
Read details below:
In one of my numerous visits to Aravwharien Kingdom in Ughelli South LGA, I came across something that is not too cheering and befitting for such a hard-working and Serene community: School children of ASAMANA PRIMARY SCHOOL ARAVWHARIEN looking troubled with very low morale. A situation that falls into the catchment area of The John Oyibokwifi Foundation philanthropic intervention.
On that faithful day at the river bank of Arhawanien I made a promise on behalf of the Foundation to look into this very critical matter because the future of our country and community can’t be sitting at water banks observing visitors coming into the community instead of sitting in their various classrooms getting the needed coaching to make them great. I assured the children that Life is in stages, and that whatever they are going through at the moment is one of the building Blocks towards achieving a great Future. Success and prosperity are sweetest when we juxtaposed them with the difficulties we go through to arrive at El dorado. I shared my own personal stories with them just to keep their spirits high.
In fulfilment of that promised made to the children, Today, The Foundation has made provision for ONE HUNDRED NEW SCHOOL UNIFORMS and delivered to the community to be distributed to those in need of them.
In addition, The Foundation is currently undertaking a pipe borne water project at the same ASAMANA PRIMARY SCHOOL, ARAVWHARIEN, to be completed in December 2021, to solve the water challenge in the school and neighbouring buildings.
Politics has/is taking me to many communities , especially around Ughelli South. I have first hand information on the basic needs and problems of each and every communities in Ughelli South. God willing with time we will do the best we can in lifting our communities most especially our Women and Children across Ughelli South by GOD Grace because the interest and happiness of our people is paramount to me being happy.
This fact is the fuel and driving Force for me in politics
I use this opportunity to call on political leaders to please get closer to their people to know their challenges. Our people need more than they are currently getting from us. The Gap between what is needed and what is on ground is so wide that it needs our immediate intervention as leaders, especially those whom are benefitiary of our people’s trust.
