Chief Okechukwu Agurd, a US-based cheerful giver has shared about forty cows to ten villages in the Neni community in the Anoacha Local Government Area of Anambra State to celebrate Yuletide season.
Umuabani, Umukabia, Ugwudunu, Okofia, Umunri, Ezineni, Umueze, Eziaja, Umudioka, and Etitinabo were the ten villages that benefited from the cows.
Speaking shortly after the distribution that took place at his residence in Umuabani village on Wednesday, January 1st, 2025, Chief Agurd said the gesture was part of his family’s mandate to give back to his community for their continued support and prayers.
The gesture, according to him, is aimed at touching the lives of less privileged people as part of his family’s God-given responsibility.
“My family believes that any well-to-do individuals should endeavor to touch the lives of people in their immediate community.
“This is why my wife, and I adopted this to take care of the less privileged people in society, particularly in my Neni community.
“In 2022, I shared 20 cows, and this year, 2025, I have just distributed 20 cows also, and by God’s grace next year I will do more.
“The gesture cuts across ethnic and regional affiliations.
“We also intervened in offering scholarships to Neni students and empowering artisan youths and women across the ten aforementioned villages.
“We encourage other well-meaning individuals in our dear community to participate in the act of giving, for it is in giving that we brighten smiles and keep the light of our faith glowing.”
