OKONGKO CHARITY FOUNDATION GIVES 1000000 BUSINESS SUPPORT TO ANOTHER A’IBOMITE

The Okongko Charity Foundation founded by a Canadian-based businessman and humanitarian service provider, Dr. Chris Okongko has again lifted another Akwa Ibomite, Mrs Glory Iniobong, with 1000000 business grant.

The gesture which commemorated the birthfest of the Foundation’s African Representative, Sir Daniel Ekanem, is one of the empowerment schemes of the Foundation.

Presenting a cheque to the beneficiary, Deputy Head of Humanitarian of the Foundation, Ms Iniobong Udom, congratulated her for being found worthy of the largesse.

Ms Udom urged the beneficiary to make judicious use of the fund, while wishing the celebrant and African Representative a happy birthday.

Earlier in his remarks, the African Representative, Sir Daniel Ekanem welcomed the beneficiary into the Foundation’s empowerment scheme, urging her to invest the fund wisely to better her family.

Sir Ekanem appreciated the International President of the Foundation, Dr Chris Okongko for having earlier given scholarship to the three (3) children of the beneficiary, noting that the Foundation further found her worthy of the grant to boost her income to carter for her family.

Speaking on the modalities for selecting beneficiaries for the Foundation’s empowerment schemes, Sir Dan stressed:

“Today, the Foundation is doing this to commemorate my birthday as the African Representative. The Foundation will monitor the progress you’ll be making and encourage you more from time to time.

“You don’t need to have connections before you are empowered by the Foundation. Once the searchlight beams on you, you’ll be favoured without having to know anybody

“You are blessed with a business seed today to prosper and be useful for yourself and family.”

The climax of the occasion was a cheque presentation to the beneficiary and birthday formalities in honour of the African Representative.
