“I will work with the Rotary Club to ensure that the club continues its services to humanity, especially, less privileged ones in the society,” Ufoaroh pledged.
The immediate past President Rtn Danason Ndubuisi, in his speech, thanked Club members for the support and pledged his unalloyed support to the Visionary President to do more greater things in the Community than he did.
