The event fostered a sense of community and solidarity, with the former representative reassuring his people of renewed hope for more interventions even after completing his office tenure as a Lagos Assembly member.

Purpose of the Initiative:

The initiative served as an opportunity to provide essential food items (chickens and rice) to the indigent members of Shomolu Constituency 1, which also came with a cash token to the most indigent community members during this Christmas period. This holistic approach aimed to address immediate concerns while empowering recipients with the flexibility to meet other essential needs.

Though this is not the first time he's bringing smiles to the faces of our people, this year's initiative is highly impressive, and we shall continue to say thank you to him."

Another beneficiary, Mr. Amusan Badmus, said the initiative was perceived as a meaningful gesture that went beyond traditional food distribution programs. He acknowledged the financial challenges caused by the removal of fuel subsidy, making it difficult for families to cope with nationwide food inflation during this festive period. "We shall continue to pray for O1 Arena boss (Hon Rotimi Olowo) for success in all his endeavors now and in the future."
