…As CEO Recieves Commendation
By Sandra Agenu
Many, from the way they express concern for others, especially for the less privileged in the society, would have loved to be extending the milk of human kindness in them but for the simple fact that they have not the means.
Those who have the means complimented with the feeling for the less privileged, show it no matter how little, and not minding that they have not fully made it.
To the latter group of human is what the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Mrs. Isioma Catherine Itekena Tamunokuro who is also a Special Assistant to the governor of Delta State, Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa on Youth Mobilization, belongs.
She believes in giving out to the less privileged no matter the little she has, and will be left with her thereafter.
Her NGO formed in 2020, has started making waves and lives according to its motto which is providing solace and comfort, the main reason for forming it, to shower solace, comfort and happiness among the aged, from 60 and above, because according to her, ‘’age 50 and below are still able-bodied and can cater for themselves. Nechama also takes care of the youths as we believe they are future leaders of tomorrow.’’
On where her NGO has been able to touch since forming it, she says: “We get in touch with ward chairmen of political parties from different local governments areas. The most recent recipients from my NGO was wards 5 and 7 where rice, beans, oil, other condiments were given out to more than 60 persons and still counting among them were men and women, widows, the aged who were all carefully selected.’’
A prominent Obi in Asaba, Obi Micheal Odiaka spoke at the event while Obi Amuwa Sunday was present at the occasion that attracted many people in both wards in Asaba, the Delta State capital.
Isioma Catherine Itekena Tamunokuro, says her NGO hopes to carry its functions beyond Oshimili to other parts of Delta State to enlarge the number of its beneficiaries.
The NGO has many members and still hope to widen its scope by bringing in more members after the elections.
She was full of appreciation for her boss, Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa for giving her the opportunity to serve her people as SA on Youth Mobilization. Her appreciation also goes to the Permanent Secretary, Government House, Asaba, Sir Edwin Ogidi-Gbegbaje, whom she described as a father and a mentor, also to her husband for supporting her project which she is using to reach out to people. In her list of those appreciated is Ambassador Uyero Erarawewho Junior for his support also.
