NIGERIA/LAGOS - Wife of Lagos State Governor and founder, Hope for Women in Nigeria Initiative (HOFOWEM), Mrs. Bolanle Ambode, Tuesday flagged off the distribution of 50,000 shoes and branded socks to primary one pupils of public schools across the State.
Mrs. Ambode flagged off the distribution at the Cherubim and Seraphim Primary School, Lagos Road, Majidun in Ikorodu.
The distribution is the 2018 edition of the “Project Bright Steps,” a pet project of HOFOWEM, to boost the morale of the children and sensitise the society that the welfare of pupils is important, in getting the best of them in their academic pursuits.
In the first edition of Project Bright Steps in February last year, 175,000 shoes and HOFOWEM-branded socks, were distributed to all Primary 1-3 pupils of public primary schools across Lagos State.
Flagging off the distribution, Mrs Ambode said: "By the grace of God, upon the huge success recorded in the first edition, we are flagging-off the second edition of the project today, with a plan to distribute no less than 50,000 shoes and branded socks, to the primary one pupils of public schools across the State."
