From the Orphanage, the President, Chief Barr. Emmanuel Ganiga, led the group to Sapele Central Hospital where they supported patients in male/ female and children’s ward with cash gifts to aid their treatment.
After the the visit to the orphanage and hospital, the group held a lavish reception at Richards Continental Hotel, Sapele which was well attended by members, including past presidents of the club. During the reception, awards were presented to past presidents and other deserving members as the club showed appreciation to those who had contributed so much to the group.
Speaking in a chat with pressmen, Chief Barr Emmanuel Ganiga said the Club is a philanthropic group made up of high calibre men who have distinguished themselves in the society.
