Education Will Foster Future Security — NGO
By Ifeoma Ikem
The First British Charity Home Foundation, a non-profit making organisation, has donated writing materials to orphans and the less privileged of the Faith Reward International School Ijesha, Lagos.
Besides, about 10 indigent pupils’ school fees were paid by the foundation.
This is to cushion the effects of the economic hardship in the country.
The founder of the Evans Uchendu said the gesture is aimed at fostering educational support for the orphans and less privileged who are future leaders.
According to him, the hardship in the country where people are struggling to feed, and some children are being sent out of school because their parents can no longer pay their school fees is alarming.
‘We decided to come to Faith Reward International School, where we found out that there are about 10 less privileged children, orphans and children of the poor widows among pupils here.
There is even one, the father is alive but disabled; so struggling with these children and how to fend for them not to talk of paying school fees is a difficult task, so we decided to pay their school fees including other levies such as Parents Teachers’ Association PTA as well as donated other writing materials. If you see, this is a private school, so we have just ten of the pupils that fall within the category we are targeting at the moment. As always, I believe so much in the security of lives and property securing the future and I have this passion and believe that charity as such to children of the widows is a way of lessening their burden and giving the children access to meaningful education to become somebody in life.

I believe that when you take people out of mass illiteracy, it has a way of fostering future security”he added .
However, if we have people growing in an environment where they do not believe that somebody can support them, their mindset always say that insecurity is a thing of the mindset, so if we have these people and restoring that trust in their minds that people can actually help them, in the future they too will be motivated to help others.
Uchendu notes that as a security operative who knows the essence of security of lives and property, the number of out of school children for being unable to pay their bills would definitely add to the level of insecurity in the country.
“This is a private school, so we have just ten of the pupils that fall within the category we are targeting at the moment.
” I believe so much in the security of lives and property, securing the future and I have this passion and believe that charity to children of the widows is a way of lessening their burden and giving the children access to meaningful education to become somebody in life.
“I also believe that when you take people out of mass illiteracy, it has a way of fostering future security”, he added .

Mr Segun Arinze, a Nollywood actor stressed the importance of Education which is the best way to unlocking a brighter future; yet for many students across the nation, financial constraints have stood as insurmountable barriers to accessing quality education.
Segun urged other non governmental organizations to emulate this type of kind gesture to many out of school children, and give them a sense of belonging because education is the bedrock of individual, he said.
He advised the children to always be of good behavior, never associate themselves with wrong gang for them not to tarnish the image or reputations of Nigeria.
Responding, the proprietress of the school, Evang Ambassador Fedelia Ohemeyin who appreciates members of the foundation said that she never experienced such gesture.
According to her, I’m overwhelmed for this great opportunity for my school to be one of the benefiticary in this locality if not the first among private schools.
“I don’t know how to express my gratitude to them but I know that the God we serve will touch their lives. This Foundation will grow from strength to strength, glory to glory and power to power.
As he has started in this manner, the hands of God will never leave him.
Mrs. Olowoyo Fadekemi, a widow who lost her husband early into their marriage six years ago, coming to pay her child’s school fees was a miracle.
“I can say this is miracle. When the proprietress of the school called me that somebody was coming today to pay my child’s fee,
I was like, this can only come from God.
For the past six years that my husband left me early into our marriage, I have been all alone. After one month into the death of my husband, his family left us alone.
COAS Launches Nationwide Security Renewal Mission in Plateau
The Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Waidi Shaibu, on Thursday led a high-level delegation of security chiefs to Plateau State, flagging off a nationwide security renewal mission aimed at strengthening civil-military cooperation and restoring lasting peace across the country.
The visit to Jos, the Plateau State capital, marks the first phase of a coordinated national effort to address persistent security challenges through joint operations, community engagement, and proactive intelligence gathering.
Governor Caleb Muftwang received the delegation, describing the initiative as a critical step toward stabilizing affected communities and reinforcing public confidence in security institutions.
Civil-Military Synergy Takes Centre Stage
At the heart of the mission is a renewed emphasis on collaboration between the military, civil authorities, and local communities. Speaking during the visit, Lt. Gen. Shaibu stressed that national security must be treated as a collective responsibility.
He urged citizens to support security agencies by remaining vigilant, sharing credible information, and complying with lawful directives, noting that effective security cannot be achieved in isolation.
Community Engagement as Confidence-Building Tool
In a departure from purely operational engagements, the Army Chief held direct consultations with community leaders and residents in Jos, reinforcing the importance of trust and dialogue in conflict resolution.
Lawmakers, including Dachung Bagos and Ladi Dangyok, commended the initiative, stating that visible engagement by top military leadership helps rebuild confidence among citizens and fosters cooperation.
Proactive Security Operations Underway
Operational updates were provided by Major General Folusho Oyinlola, who disclosed that troops under Operation Enduring Peace have intensified surveillance, intelligence-led patrols, and coordinated actions with other security agencies.
According to the Army, the approach is designed to prevent escalation of threats, safeguard lives and property, and stabilize vulnerable communities before crises emerge.
A Shift Toward Sustainable Peace
Military authorities emphasized that the Plateau visit is part of a broader, long-term strategy to transition from reactive responses to sustainable peacebuilding nationwide. The framework includes strengthening local resilience, ensuring justice, and maintaining continuous engagement with stakeholders.
Analysts view the initiative as a significant policy shift, reflecting a more inclusive security architecture that integrates community participation with military operations.
Call for National Unity
The Army leadership concluded with an appeal to Nigerians to reject divisive narratives and support ongoing efforts to promote unity and peace.
“The success of this mission depends not only on the armed forces but on the cooperation of every citizen,” the COAS stated.
The nationwide security renewal campaign is expected to extend to other regions in the coming weeks as authorities seek to consolidate gains and build a safer, more unified Nigeria.

Grace Nation Worldwide: A Living Reality – Dr. Chris Okafor
……“Miracles, Healing, and Deliverance Overflow at Grace Nation Services”
The Grace Nation midweek Prophetic Healing, Deliverance, and Solutions (PHDS) Service on 2nd April 2026 at the international headquarters in Ojodu Berger, Lagos, was a spectacular display of God’s power, marked by miracles, healing, and deliverance.
The God of Grace Nation continues to demonstrate His authority, breaking strongholds, healing the sick, restoring lost glory, and providing solutions to every problem presented at His altar.
Testimonies of God’s Power
One woman, previously diagnosed with a terminal condition and slated for a ₦4.5 million surgery due to inability to excrete, was prayed for by the Generational Prophet, Christopher Okafor, just a week after visiting the church. Declaring healing within 24 hours, she returned to testify to God’s miraculous intervention.
Another pregnant woman, whose baby was bridged and at risk, was located and prayed for. She returned to service with confirmation that her child is now well-positioned for delivery. Similarly, a woman booked for a C-section due to an overdue and poorly positioned pregnancy testified during the service that her baby is now properly positioned, ready for birth.
These testimonies underscore the truth: what God cannot do does not exist. Grace Nation has entered a new level of spiritual authority, and with faith, believers are witnessing the impossible become reality.
God Works by Principle, Not Gossip
In his sermon, Dr. Okafor emphasized that God does not operate on superstition, gossip, or social media pressures. His work is grounded in His Word, and it is through adherence to His principles that Grace Nation continues to flourish.
The Generational Prophet stressed that to enjoy divine blessings and fruitfulness, believers must remain connected to God’s Word, faithfully serve Him, and ignore distractions or side-talks. Focused commitment to God’s service guarantees alignment with His miraculous power.
