Mr. Kayode Araoye, the director of Lasuth social welfare department alongside a fellow social welfare officer Mr. Jamiu Idris expressed their gratitude to the Charitable Wisemen Club Of Nigeria as they promised the funds will be appropriately shared across board to the needy such as the children, medical, surgical and O&G
