The Irede Foundation in partnership with NNPC/SNEPCo on Friday officially handed over five Prosthetic Limbs to four children in Lagos.
While three of the beneficiaries got a limb, Perry Odigie, whose lower limbs were amputated as a toddler received two artificial limbs for both legs.
Presenting the prosthetics in Lagos, Adegoke Areje who represented the Managing Director, SNEPCo, said imparting lives and giving back to the community were the centre of the blueprint of the organisation.
Encouraging the Champions and the caregivers present, Areje said it was the beginning of great things in their lives, adding that nothing was impossible. “Sometimes, things happen in our lives and we think, God why me? or why did this have to happen? But I want you to know you are in your position because you are there to affect your generation, you are there to affect your growth, you are there to make this world a better place than you have met it and you are here to give solutions to any and everybody in every sphere of life. So, take this challenge, take this as a step, and take it not as a limiting factor but as a step to impact your world” Blessing Odigie,
