The Chairman of Mushin Local Government Mr. Emmanuel Bamigboye has put smiles on faces of the aged, widows and less privileged in Mushin community, as he distributed packs of food items, Ankara cloth and cash gifts to them, for the celebration of Christmas.
Known by his nickname, Owo Arugbo, the Chairman, who started the quarterly cash gift distribution to this group of individuals, has always given food, clothing materials, and financial support to this group of people during the yuletide season.
The chairman’s gift this year is therefore not an exception, even in light of the challenging and rapidly expanding developmental projects that the Bamigboye-led government will be carrying out in 2023. Additionally, the chairman organized the Mega Palliative program to help mitigate the impact of the removal of fuel subsidies and improve living conditions for the people of Mushin.
Being an advocate for the propagation of “Care for the Elderly’ at all levels of government, the Chairman had always made provisions for the aged and senior citizens during all his programmes in Mushin.
Speaking at the special free package event, the council chair asked the recipients to continue praying for his administration’s success as well as the success of those in government, noting that they would gain more from it.
Over 350 beneficiaries in all over the 10 Wards of Mushin Local Government received gifts of cash and a package of rice, beans, semo, gari, tubers of yam, and other food items.
Some of the beneficiaries who came in the attire given to them for the celebration of 2022 Christmas season, expressed their appreciation to Hon. Emmanuel Bamigboye for always making provisions for them to celebrate Christmas with happiness. They thanked him for his care for the elderly people and widows in Mushin.
Joining the chairman to distribute the packs were: the Vice Chairman – Hon. Tunbosun Aruwe, Leader of the legislative arm – Mr. Olamide Williams, Secretary to the Local Government – Mrs. Olubunmi Gbadamosi, Councillors, Supervisors, Council Manager, Council Treasurer, Special Advisers/Assistants, community leaders and political leaders in Mushin Local Government.
