In the spirit of Christmas, members of Rotary Club of Abule Egba Metropolitan, currently led by the United President, Bolanle Ogunleye celebrated the season with indigent Nigerians.
 
"This is what we do in Rotary, reaching out to the needy in our communities. Members of this club have levied themselves to provide these food items for you so that as they are enjoying their food on Christmas day, you all can also have food to eat", DG Akeredolu
 
 
The club distributed mini bags of rice and vegetable oil to 5o widows and widowers in the community. This kind gesture during this period of the year is not the first to be displayed by the club members who have displayed similar act in previous years.
 
The food items were handed to the beneficiaries by the District Governor, Dr. Jide Akeredolu, alongside the club president during the District Governor's official visit to the club on Thursday, December 19, 2019.
 
DG Akeredolu thanked Rotary Club of Abule Egba Metropolitan for making this food items available and like I know, the club has taken this act as a signature project which is carried out by the club annually during Christmas period.
 
The DG, while addressing the beneficiaries said, "This is what we do in Rotary, reaching out to the needy in our communities. Members of this club have levied themselves to provide these food items for you so that as they are enjoying their food on Christmas day, you all can also have food to eat. All I ask in return is that you remember them in your prayers so that they will continue to do for you, even more than they have done."
 
The excited beneficiaries took turns to appreciate the club members for their selfless act of kindness over the years.
