A Non-Governmental Organisation, Afenifere Renewal Group, ARG, has emphasized the need for individuals and organizations to support the effort of the government in critical sectors of the nation as part of efforts to transform the nation.
The group made the call today at the presentation of more than one hundred classroom chairs and tables as well as a motorized well to the Community LGEA school, Ganmo.
Set of chairs donated to Community LGEA School, Ganmo by ARG.
The donation was made by the ARG, United States of America chapter.
Kwara state Secretary of ARG, Abdulateef Bamidele, who made the presentation said the gesture was to assist the school with needed facilities in order to aid academic activities.
Bamidele noted that support from non-governmental bodies be it, religious, ethnic or socio-cultural group, is necessary as only government can no longer render the needed services, especially following the drop in allocation.
