Our role therefore is to solicit support from partners, collaborators and benefactors in improving lives through SDG 1, 2, 6 and 8 which state thus: No Poverty, No Hunger.
Clean Water and Sanitation as well as decent work and economic growth. The group also used the opportunity to invite stakeholders as participants in ushering in a new era of co-operation and prosperity with the inauguration of the key drivers of this project with Lagos State citizens as inaugural beneficiaries.” The plan is to endow others on a state by state basis”.
