As part of its activities for the New Year, the Quality and Selfless Empowerment Foundation, the brain child of Queen Sekiant Aramide Elegushi, hosted over 200 children from within Ikate Kingdom in Lagos State and its environs to a New Year party.

The annual New Year party is one of her humanitarian programmes for residents in the community, particularly the indigent.

In her remarks, Elegushi advised the children to be focused, disciplined and shun all forms of social vices, to make their parents and the country proud.

“Also, as you resume school tomorrow, I urge you to study very hard so as to become great personalities in life, make your parents and the country proud,” she said.

Elegushi thanked God on behalf of the children for keeping them alive and healthy to witness another year.

She thanked her husband and Patron of the foundation as well as other trustees for their support and for also spending time with the children.

She equally thanked the International Women Society (IWS) and other organizations for their partnership and collaboration. 

The children who had quality time of entertainment, amusement and merriment, were given different items including school bags; writing materials; lunch boxes; water bottles; snacks and toys.
