Members of Ifitedunu community in Dunukofia Local Government Area, have received food items, including bags of rice, tubers of yam and condiments from the Traditional Ruler of the community, Igwe Dr. Emeka Ilouno, as he embarked on Covid-19 outreach programme in the community.
Other items distributed at the event, under strict observance to COVID-19 preventive measures are nose masks, farm input, including fertilizer, lime, maize, cucumber, water melon seed and bundles of cassava stems.
Distributing the items, Igwe Ilouno said the step was taken in response to the need to help members of the community and the state government in cushioning the effects of the lockdown occasioned by COVID-19 and to collectively and successfully fight the Coronavirus rearing its head in the State.
Igwe Ilouno, while encouraging his subjects to continuously observe preventive measures against the virus, equally encouraged them to embark on “ugbo azu uno”, as espoused by Anambra State Government, to enable them cushion post-COVID-19 effects, expressing confidence that the state government will successfully manage all COVID-19 cases in the State.
Some beneficiaries, including Mrs. Josephine Malife, Stella Iloduba and Mr. Chukwuka Obidigbo, who explained that life has never been easy for them while observing preventive measures against the virus, thanked Igwe Ilouno for putting food on their tables.
Correspondent Joseph Egbeocha reports that the President-General of Ifitedunu Town Union, Mr. Uchenna Nwoye, and some cabinet members were present during the distribution exercise.
