Eze Nwokedi made the call when he empowered residents of the communities with gifts and awards worth millions of Naira to mark the new Yam festival in Ijegun. He said the initiative was to give back to the less privileged in the society and appreciate God for the harvest season of the new Yam.

Eze Nwokedi sued for peaceful coexistence among all tribes, religions and political affiliations in Lagos and the country in general for rapid development.

Chairman on the occasion, Chief Sunny Akpaoyibo, commended Eze Nwokedi for his compassion to touch lives and humanity through his philanthropic gesture over the years… Courtesy of CHINYERE IKEANYI.
