By Tobias Lengnan Dapam

A Widow, Patience Solomon, yesterday commended Jomurota Community Care Initiative (JCCI), for helping her and other poor people in Passo community in Gwagwalada Area Council with various items including money to start new life.

Patience, mother of four, said life was unbearable for her with her children until the NGO came to her aid.

Recounting her story, the widow said “When they came to our community, I went and told them my problems. They took pity on me and gave me thirty thousand naira to start business. I started frying bean cake and now I have upgraded and have a restaurant where I sell food.

“As my income increases, I bought a two bedroom flat and can afford to pay my children’s school feel and even assist other people in the community.

Patience said she helped many widows in the community who come to her for assistance.

She appealed to donor agencies and well meaning individuals to come to the aid of Jomurota Community so as to enable them reach out to more people in other parts of the country.

On her part, the founder of the NGO, Talatu John Shanwa, said Jomurota is always determine to reach out to the needy but at times lacks the financial capability.

“If we have more money, we can go places. It is always our prayer to see more donors who can assists us so that we can reach out to this people. There are many people out there who need our help but we can only help them if we have more funds”.
