Foundation fetes widows, less privileged

An NGO, Nwaudo Foundation, has donated food items worth over N1 million to about 170 less privileged people in Gboko Local Government Area of Benue State.

The President of the Foundation, Ikechukwu Christian Uchendu, recalled while distributing the items at the J S Tarka Stadium in Gboko, that he had to leave his family house in Okija in Anambra State about 17 years ago to seek greener pastures in Gboko, adding that God made the land to favour him, hence his resolve to give back to the society.

The Items donated included rice, salt, onions, tinned tomatoes and seasoning to widows and orphans.

One of the beneficiaries, a widow, Sandra Numbe, appreciated the foundation for the gesture.
