Yuletide: Olusegun Cares foundation distributes christmas gifts worth millions of Naira in Lagos. By: Fashina Shakiru. A member of the All Progressives Congress, Lagos State, Hon Olusegun Idowu has distributed Christmas gifts for over one thousand five hundred households. Speaking with newsmen on Friday said he, '' Olusegun Cares is an initiative that has spanned over 16th years to catering for less privileged and putting smiles on the faces of the community for those who do not have enough to celebrate this yuletide. According to him, what brought about this gesture was an elderly man who came to meet him 16 years ago. He requested, ' My son give me money to buy Christmas chicken for this season''. And felt that there were so many families like that without such access to him. Consequently, I made a decision to provide for the people irrespective of their Religious beliefs, political affiliation, tribe and ethnicity. Although I started with 50 packages of foodstuffs and chicken from there, it has increased tremendously to 1500 packages. " The passion for this is also traceable to the scripture Proverbs 19 verse 17"where the Bible says'' when you give to the poor, you lend to God and God owes no man" So as we do this, we made those who don't have much to be happy and we do it every year. As the 2023 election approaches, we implore Nigerians to vote APC at all levels. Commenting, Hon Olawale Edu, Leader Lagos state APC, Ikoyi/Obalende LCDA, a close ally of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu who also hails from Ikoyi/Obalende LCDA, noted this is part of democracy. This stalwart of the party is trying to ensure he puts a smile on the faces of people at this yuletide, particularly the elderly women and men. " Mr Olusegun Idowu is doing well, and he has done well for the past 16th years, reaching out to the less privileged." This is part of democratic mobilization. He is propagating the name of party, is doing to make the candidates that we have right from our Presidential candidate, Senator Ahmed Bola Tinubu, and all to the APC candidates in Ikoyi/Obalende LCDA by ensuring victory comes 2023 election. In every opportunity, APC people are doing better. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as president of Nigeria, will make things better. He did it in Lagos, and he can do it at the federal level. He will bring smiles to the faces of the masses of the people
