He said he was physically present at the occasion to ensure that every family was satisfied and prayed that God will replenish the pockets of all those who contributed to put smiles on the faces of the people in the community.

He also prayed that the unity of purpose that resulted in the success of the initiative would continue for the progress of the community.

The initiative was championed by a group, Umuokoro Progressives, co-ordinated by Gregory Nwahiri.
