The delegation led by factional Vice President Olumide Oyedeji will use the opportunity of the visit to play with the children and mentor them as well as donate some items to them.

The Outreach programme which started five years ago is part of the NBBF’s Community Relations Service to reach out to the less privileged in the society.
