PDP Chieftain, Hon. Faro Empowers Over 1,000 Widows, PLWDs, Youths, Drum Support for Agboola Ajayi
No fewer than 1,000 widows, People Living With Disabilities (PLWDs) and youths on Thursday, 12th September, 2024 received gift packs of food items as well as cash gift of N10,000.00 each at a mega empowerment program tagged: Babatunde Faro Widows, PLWDs & Youth Outreach, an annual event organized by People’s Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, Hon. Babatunde Faro.
This gesture is coming just weeks after Hon. Faro paid over #3M for delivery of registered pregnant women for the months of July and August 2024 and as well kick started the constructions of Toilet facilities and Staff Quarters at Isolo Comprehensive Health Center, Akure.
Speaking at the event held in Akure, the Ondo State capital, Hon. Faro said he is passionate about improving the living conditions of the people bearing the harsh economic realities of the day.
He said over #20M was invested into procuring items and cash gifts to help bring succour to many homes.
While noting that the whole idea is not to show off, but rather give hope to the indigents of better days ahead as his political party is ready to lead Ondo State people in the right direction if given the chance to steer the affairs of the state.
He said plans are underway to host another major empowerment by December, when his party would have won big during the election.
Particularly, he encouraged the people to vote for the gubernatorial candidate of his party, Hon. Agboola Ajayi in the November 16th polls.
He further noted that beneficiaries are made up of political and non political groups in the state.
In his remarks, Hon. Agboola Ajayi applauded the Akure South chieftain, Hon. Faro for giving back to his community just as he acknowledged that the impact of his doings is greatly felt in the party.
He used the occasion to pray for divine protection for him and for members of his household just as he called on the people to vote for him in order to change the narratives of Ondo State among the comity of states in Nigeria.
While also expressing his readiness to serve the interest of the people when voted into office, Hon. Ajayi admonished Ondo State people to vote for PDP in the coming polls.
At the event was the former Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Mr Omolade Oluwateru, and the former National Vice Chairman (South), PDP, Dr. Eddy Olafeso who also took turns to appreciate the gesture by Hon. Faro and to congratulate the beneficiaries.
One major highlight of the event is the distribution of food packs of rice, garri, bottle litre of groundnut oil and cash gifts among others to over 1,000 beneficiaries
The event also afforded some past beneficiaries the opportunity to express their gratitude and share thoughts on ways the initiative can achieve greater impact.
