Rt. Hon. Chief Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, Enugu State Governor |
Gburugburu
made this known in Enugu during the 5th anniversary and graduation ceremony for
the skills acquisition students and dedication of the Resource and Recreational
Centre for the blind and visually impaired, founded by a non-governmental
organization, Bina Foundation.
According to
the governor, who is known for his disarming humility, his presence at the
event was to specifically identify with his “special friends,” the
less-privileged, who he described as the true heroes of democracy, assuring
them of the support of Enugu State government at all times.
He extoled
the founders of the organization, Sir
and Lady Chris Atuegwu, for their kind gesture towards the physically
challenged people and the needy in the state and called on other rich and
well-meaning Nigerians to emulate their good works to make the world a better
place.
Earlier in
her welcome address, the president of the Foundation, Lady Ifeoma Atuegwu, who praised the governor for his uncommon care
for the down-trodden, thanked God for His inspiration which enabled her and
other co-founders to dedicate their service towards ameliorating the pains and
sufferings of the poor and needy.
According to
her, the foundation which started in 2010 has recorded remarkable achievements
for their target groups, which include the physically challenged, the blind and
visually impaired, deaf and mute, the aged, motherless and abandoned babies,
orphans and vulnerable children
