The initiative, which focused on providing essential food items to vulnerable households, was aimed at easing the burden of fasting for families during the holy month. Beneficiaries received items including rice, spaghetti, salt, sugar, tomato paste, seasoning, semovita, and cooking oil.
He noted that Ramadan presents a unique opportunity for individuals and organizations to extend kindness to those in need, stressing that giving back to society remains a core value of the company.
“Ramadan is not only about fasting but also about showing love, compassion, and support to those around us,” Oladimeji said. “This outreach is our own little way of ensuring that families can observe the fast with dignity and without undue hardship.”
The CEO further emphasized that the initiative was borne out of a desire to identify with the less privileged, particularly at a time when many households are grappling with economic challenges.
“We understand the current realities many families are facing, and we believe that no one should struggle to have basic meals, especially during a sacred period like this, we will still continue the distribution tomorrow he added.
Some of the beneficiaries, who spoke during the distribution, expressed gratitude to the company for the timely intervention, noting that the support would go a long way in sustaining their families throughout the fasting period.
One of the beneficiaries Adebayo Rofiat said, “This gesture means so much to us. With these items, we can focus on our prayers and fasting without worrying too much about feeding our families.”
