When I went back to Holland, I discussed the deplorable state of primary health facility with my executives and the entire members of Ihiala Local Government Union in the Netherland.
“After our deliberations, we then reached to a conclusion to start with ten medical foams for the five towns that have their indigenes in the Union Ihiala, Okija, Uli, Amorka, and Mbosi.
Ndukaihe also stated that this charity work will not stop with this, more will be coming by God’s grace. “The reasons we are doing this is to give back to the land of our fore fathers, and to encourage others in Europe, America, and the world at large to follow suit. Let us join hands in building our communities, Local Government Area, our state, and our Igbo nation.
Thank you all for coming, and for listening.”
