An All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain and senatorial aspirant for Ekiti North Senatorial District, Chief Segun Ajibulu, has urged Nigerians to always show compassion to the less privileged, widows, and orphans, especially during periods of celebration.
Ajibulu made the call during a humanitarian visit to selected motherless homes in Ado-Ekiti, where he spent time with the children and demonstrated love and care through the donation of food items, cash, and other essential provisions.
Speaking during the visit, the APC chieftain stressed that festive seasons should go beyond merrymaking, noting that it is a moral and societal responsibility for those who are privileged to remember the needy and vulnerable members of society.
“Celebration has no meaning if the less privileged are forgotten. Widows, orphans and the vulnerable deserve to feel the joy of the season like every other person. Giving to them is not just an act of charity but a duty we owe humanity,” Ajibulu said.
He explained that his gesture was driven by a desire to put smiles on the faces of the children and reassure them that they are loved and valued by society, adding that such acts of kindness help to build hope and confidence in the future of the young ones.
Ajibulu also called on individuals, corporate bodies, and well-meaning Nigerians to support motherless homes and similar institutions, noting that government alone cannot meet all their needs.
The management of the motherless homes, in their separate remarks, expressed appreciation for the visit and the donations, describing Ajibulu’s gesture as timely and impactful. They prayed for him and urged other leaders and philanthropists to emulate his example.
The visit, which attracted smiles and excitement from the children, underscored Ajibulu’s commitment to humanitarian service and community development in Ekiti State.a
