He said plans have been completed to institute the memorial foundation so as to assist people in kogi East and the entire state who for lack of funds cant meet such obligations.
He said the foundation is a very little way of supporting the less privileged brothers and sisters and as a way of expressing love and commitment to his community, people and state as a whole.
“I assure you that these efforts shall be sustained and will be expanded to accommodate many of those in need and shall be administered based on transparency, equity and fairness to all.
“I hold it very dear to my heart that the greatest legacy to leave behind for any generation is education, to me education remains the only tool that would take away our youths from the street and insulate them from the temptation of armed robbery and kidnapping,” he said.
