Billionaire businessman and philanthropist, Chief Kenneth Ifekudu ( Agbalanze Onyekachukwu na Ozubulu) has brought succour and laughter to many families in Anambra State as he empowers 50 persons with mini trucks to support their livelihood.
This is in response to growing economic challenges facing many families across the country, arising from high cost of living, hyper inflation and job losses.
The mini trucks are estimated to worth over N150m.
The empowerment which took place at his home town, Ozubulu in Anambra State is one of similar projects he has carried out in the past to advance his humanitarian and philanthropic programmes.
Ifekudu who recently won the award of businessman of the year of the Sun Newspaper has consistently demonstrated that charity begins at home, which inspired the decision to ensure that people of his community are the first beneficiaries of the empowerment.
Ifekudu, the Chairman of Diamond Leeds Ltd who recently unveiled his multi-billion Naira mansion in Anambra while handing over the mini trucks to the beneficiaries prayed for God’s protection upon them as they go about their businesses
A holder of national honour of OFR, he has remained consistent in carrying out very impactful projects in communities.
Not long ago, he completed a road project which was commissioned by the state governor.
The beneficiaries could not hold their joy as they expressed gratitude to the philanthropist and made divine intercessions upon him for progress and prosperity.
The Empowerment exercise was attended by The Chairman of Seahorse Lubricants, Dr Ebuka Onunkwo, Barr. Ezeani Igwilo, President of Imperial Majesty, Chief Dr Darlington Nwabunike(Egonejeije) and Okwumeleze and some other notable dignitaries as witnesses to the event.
