Pukka Logistics and Support Services Ltd., in collaboration with international philanthropists, has extended support to Nigerians living with disabilities in Lagos.
At an event held at the Centre for Citizens with Disabilities office in Opebi, Ikeja, food items were distributed, and messages of hope were shared with beneficiaries.
The representative of Pukka Logistics, Akingbelu-Banjo, said the programme, which was initiated in March 2024, aims to combat hunger and food poverty across Nigeria by reaching all 774 local government areas.
According to her, the outreach is being carried out in partnership with international businessmen Sudeep Ramnani and Jai Mahtani.
“So far, thousands of Nigerians have benefited from the initiative. This effort is part of our commitment to supporting the Nigerian government’s fight against hunger and food insecurity.
“We are inspired by the resilience of Nigerians and remain committed to making a positive impact, one community at a time,” Akingbelu-Banjo said.
Speaking on behalf of the Centre for Citizens with Disabilities, Ms. Florence Austin expressed heartfelt appreciation to the organisers.
“We are deeply grateful for this act of kindness. It is thoughtful, timely, and very much needed. We hope this gesture inspires more individuals and organisations to support persons with disabilities,” she said.
