Rep visits, donates food items, clothing to constituents

The Chairman, House Committee on Diaspora Affairs, representing Ajeromi/Ifelodum in the Federal House of Representatives, Hon Rita Orji, has come to the aid of her constituents as she donated food stuffs, including bags of rice, beans, cartons of tomatoes and clothes to her constituents during the week.

The chairman, who spoke during the kick off of the tour at the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, office in Olodi Apapa, said the venture is in fulfillment to the promise she made during her campaign last year. She also visited all the wards in the constituency. Speaking at the event, she said: “This is the fourth time I am doing this since I assumed office last year, it is a quarterly programme and this is to fulfill the promise I made to the people of Ajeromi/Ifelodum federal constituency during the electoral campaign to always visit them and come to their rescue.

There is no plan to stop this kind gesture as it will continue as that is the promise I made to the people. We have also embarked on a skill acquisition programme and at the end of the programme; the graduates will be empowered both in sowing and many other things. “This is my own way of showing a little kindness to the people because many people are suffering. This is my own way to carter for them, put food on their table and clothe the naked. This is also my own way to appreciate them. What we are sharing to the people is not a party affair.”
