She stressed “our needs are building of a secretariat for the foundation,office equipment for the secretariat, photocopier machines,plasma television sets,homemaking machines and shoemaking machines among others.
“So I am using this medium to appeal for support in form of materials like shoe,cloth, and school books for students,she added.
