The organisation presented food items including bags of rice, oil, gari, sachet water, bottled drinks, Milo to feed the children of the academy to have a feel of the Christmas celebration.

The foundation also presented educa­tional material like pens, pencils, exer­cise books and many others to support the return of the children to school which reopened after the festivities.

Speaking to the children, he empha­sised the need to take academic work seriously because that was the only way they can grow to become responsible citizens to show appreciation to the organisation.

Mr Jason pledged to support three outgoing pupils of the academy through Junior High School (JHS) and urged the pupils to reciprocate the support of the academy by learning hard and pray to God for sustenance.

“All you can do to appreciate your teachers and the director of the academy is to remember them in your prayers. Pray to God to help them to keep sup­porting you while the organisation and foundation also keep their commitment to your course.

Yasmin, also a member of the founda­tion, also advised the children to “Study hard, pray well and take your academics seriously. You need to make an effort so that we all achieve success in the end.”
