Speaking in Yoruba, the Cleric said, “I’m passionate about making life better for youths and widows. Hence, I’m creating something like a Restaurant, a Care Centre that would tend to the needs of widows and less privileged people.
“Precisely, I am making a commitment to ensure their feeding twice a week.
