A renowned philanthropist and Asiwaju Adini Musulumi of Ibadan land, Arc (Dr.) Hassan Olawale Giwa has provided succor for another set of women in Akinyele Local Government Area of Oyo State by giving them confectionary equipment.
The initiative, which was sponsored by Arc (Dr.) Hassan Giwa, was organized by Mrs. Adegbuyi Victoria under Victoria Florence Rita Foundation (FLORITA).
Presenting the certificates and equipment to the beneficiary women on Sunday, the Asiwaju Adini of Ibadanland disclosed that what is important in this life is to extend good gestures to those who are in need.
Arc Giwa maintained that the gesture will contribute positively to the life of the beneficiaries by improving their business and standard of living.
The founder of Hassan Olawale Giwa (HOG) Foundation expressed that he sponsored the initiative by FLORITA because it is in line with the vision and mission of his foundation, which is to create brighter opportunities for the people.
He appealed to others who are yet to benefit to keep hope alive, as he promised not to relent in his oars in contributing his quota to uplift the poor and less privileged people in the society by supporting their education and businesses to make life meaningful and worthy to live.
In his address, Mrs. Adegbuyi Victoria, who trained the beneficiary women, commended Arc Hassan Giwa for his ingenuity towards making life meaningful to the masses and contribution to the development of society.
She identified him as a person, whose personality is worthy of emulation especially by the ruling class in order to have a balanced society where everyone will have a right to a better life.
She said that the programme is basically for the women who have been in the business but needed assistance to upgrade it.
Also in his speech, Alhaji Isiaka Alimi praised the philanthropic gesture of Arc Giwa and prayed that almighty God continues to guard and guide him.
He charged the beneficiaries to make good use of the equipment to improve their businesses.
The beneficiaries, who were trained on how to make chin-chin, plantain chips and other forms of confectionaries, expressed their appreciation to the sponsor of the programme and trainer, and assured them to make good use of the equipment.
