“It is always good to take care of the elderly ones, I have special package for their hospital bills, though secretly.
“I will open up an account for them; I have soft spot for the elderly. I will continue to pay them the salary until I die. I will write it as a will.
“I will open an investment that will be yielding money for the apostolate to the elderly and generation yet unborn.
“I thank my parents for sending me to school, education is an enabler,” he said,“ he said.
He called on the youths in the community to engage in legitimate business, adding that hard work pays instead of living life of recklessness. Speaking on behalf of the beneficiaries, Mr Chris Eluemuno, former Chairman of Ohaneze Ndigbo in Anambra described the event as a remarkable venture.
