Entrepreneur and businessman, Kingsley Obiukwu, also the Executive Director of Bolton White Group, recently launched empowerment initiatives in his hometown of Nnewi South LGA of Anambra State to improve the well-being of his people.
Obiukwu made this pledge recently at the Nnewi South LGA youth stakeholders’ meeting, where he disclosed that his foundation would focus on improving the community’s adult education and food security.
He stated that through his foundation, The Kingsley Obiukwu Foundation, he would implement free adult education in Mathematics and English in Nnewi.
“We have developed the “Free Adult Education in Mathematics and English” project in line with our commitment to empower schools and students in the community. “This initiative aims to provide accessible and impactful educational opportunities for individuals aged 25 and above in Nnewi South before expanding to other areas,” he said.
In the area of food security, Obiukwu aims to alleviate 30,000 individuals (10,000 per year) across Nnewi’s three Local Government Areas (LGAs) over a three-year by distributing 10kg of rice to the identified beneficiaries in Nnewi South LGA.
He said the initiative will begin with a pilot project in Nnewi South LGA from March 2024 to December 2024. The pilot project will be a crucial learning experience to inform the broader program rollout across all three LGAs.
Obiukwu is familiar with philanthropic gestures. He has previously donated relief materials to over 1000 low-income families in his hometown of Osumeyi, Nnewi South LGA, Anambra State through his foundation.
