You guys need to thank all people behind Oyoyo Foundation for their generosity. Well they might have seen something from the church that’s why they diced to help and donate a building in Ugiri-Ike in Ikeduru Local Government Area. People there are in need of Catholic faith, that’s why the foundation wants to be part of the process of strengthening it. I would be so honor to see the church as soon as possible because I am pretty sure that they will make it beautiful.
