A passionate appeal has been been made by the Edo State headquarters of the Centre for Childcare and Youth Development (CCYD), to the state Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, to come to the immediate rescue of the centre, following a violent rainstorm that blew off the roofs of the buildings of its school and charity centre, located in Uromi, the administrative headquarters of Esan North East local government area of the state.
The strong appeal was made by Professor John Imonbhio Abhuere, Chairman and Founder of the centre, in a press statement.
Prof Abhuere, who is an important traditional title holder of the Ovenrofuare (the sun brings peace and joy) of Ebelle kingdom of the state, also appealed to public-spirited organisations and individuals, to come to the aid of the educational, leadership and management centre.
He said: “We appeal to Governor Okpebholo, governments, organisations and individuals, to come to our rescue, urgently, so that the school children could resume their academic work and other activities of the centre, that are significant to the children, youth parents and the Edo society”
Prof. Abhuere is an educationist, youth developer and social critic, who was the longest serving Director at the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
CCYD, the educational and resource centre, registered as a trustee with the Corporate Affairs Commission, also has other edifices in its branch at Lugbe, Abuja, and was established by Abhuere, in order to give back to the society.
