Happy Times For Internally Displaced Persons In Benin As Iara Oshiomole Visits With Them

Mrs. Iara Oshiomole, wife to the Edo State governor, Mr. Adams Oshiomole, visited Internally Displaced Persons, IDPs, in Uhogua, Edo State where she donated the sum of N2 million for their upkeep.

She also gave out clothes, footwear, books, toiletries and other needed materials while assuring them that the state government had their best interests at heart. She said:

“The government and people of Edo State are ready to make you as comfortable as possible”. “We are fully aware of the circumstances that made you to leave your homes and we are sure that in a very short time, peace will return to every part of Nigeria. Let me emphasize that you are at home anywhere in Nigeria.” She assured the people.

“Edo State has promised to provide an enabling environment that will enhance your education and general well-being. Towards that end, I am here today with some of the regular requirements for your well-being. While we understand that nothing can be provided as adequate replacement for the comfort of your homes, it is our resolve to ensure that you have all that can humanly be made available. Today, every person in this camp will have pairs of changeable clothes, foot wear, books and household basic toiletries.”

Mrs. Oshiomole further encouraged the IDP’s to take advantage of the skills acquisition programme which is available in the camp. The Coordinator of the IDPs Camp, Pastor Solomon Folorunsho thanked Mrs. Iara Oshiomhole for her care and concern for the internally displaced persons noting that she was a frequent visitor when he showed appreciation for her previous visit which had seen to the comfort of the IDP’s, particularly the young ones in the camp.
