An emerging philanthropist, Engr Agaba Ikwue, has philosophically stated that *whatever is done for humanity is never too much*, while supporting the GODWIN OBLA FOUNDATION during the commissioning of the state-of-the-art KIDNEY CENTER recently in Otukpo, Benue State.
Chief Godwin Odumu Obla, SAN, through his Foundation, built and donated an edifice housing six ultra modern functional Dialysis/Kidney treatment machines to the Federal University of Health Sciences Otukpo(FUHSO).
The *JUDITH OGWA OBLA MEMORIAL KIDNEY CENTER*, built in the premises of the Teaching Hospital of FUHSO, is in fulfilment of a decision taken by the Senior Advocate of Nigeria to bridge the necessary but lacking medical gap which culminated in the death of his wife in the United States of America as a fallout of complications from kidney failure in March 2022.
While handing over the Center to FUHSO’s Vice Chancellor, Prof Innocent Ujah, mni OON, Chief Godwin Obla also instituted four academic Endowments in the Institution for Best Graduating Students in four different areas. In addition, GODWIN OBLA FOUNDATION could consider building a Center for Urological Studies in two years if the Kidney Centre is well maintained and managed.
In appreciation of Chief Godwin Obla’s benevolence, Engr Agaba Ikwue donated three million naira to the *JUDITH OGWA OBLA MEMORIAL KIDNEY CENTER*. Other donations came from the House of Representatives Member for Ado, Ogbadibo and Okpokwu constituency, Dr Francis Agbo Ottah, who donated five million naira on behalf of ENAYI OTTAH FOUNDATION, in memory of his mother.
Chief Emma Ajogi, an Abuja based businessman donated one million naira.
At the colorful commssioning ceremony, Och’Idoma V, His Royal Majesty Chief Odogbo John Elaigwu, charged other Idoma sons and daughters to emulate Chief Godwin Obla.
