"YOU ARE OUR DEFENDERS'' APPOLUS CHU TELLS 14 LAW SCHOOL STUDENTS

- PRESENTS N400, 000 DRAFT TO EACH PERSON AS SUPPORT FOR THEIR STUDIES.

The president and founder of HRH Appolus Chu Foundation and Egbere Emere Okori HRH Dr. Appolus Chu has charged fourteen law school students who are beneficiaries of his foundation's post graduate scholarship scheme to be defenders of truth, justice, fairness and equity.

He stated this at his palace in Okori Ogale when presenting four hundred thousand naira (N400,000) draft to each of the beneficiaries as a support for their studies in the Law School. He noted that lawyers are exceptional people in the society, hence, urged them to strive to make a difference in their field of endeavour and to make Eleme a centre of attention. He called on them to be a loud voice for the people of Eleme as the people lack a strong and formidable voice at the larger society.

He described Eleme as a goal post without defenders while asserting the need for them to mount up a formidable wall of defense around Eleme to protect her territorial boundaries. "I don't see any reason why any part of Eleme will be a prey to any kite, i don't see any reason why any community in Eleme will go extinct if we have outstanding future legislators, senior advocates, judges and solicitors like you all'' he said.

Speaking on behalf of the beneficiaries, Miss Atonsemi Osaroekiye expressed their profound gratitude to the overwhelming generosity of HRH Appolus Chu, adding that his good work resonates in the entire country, has attracted great men to the community and made his name a household name in the state and beyond. She promised that this gesture of love towards them will not be wasted, that they will be of good behavour and work hard to achieve their purpose in life, so that in future they will support the foundation to help other sons and daughters of Eleme.

She further prayed God to bless His Highness and replenish His Highness with the desires of his heart.
