Billionaire Philanthropy: Igho Sanomi’s $160,000 Donation to Transforms Lives of Underprivileged Children
The Global Initiative for Peace, Love, and Care (GIPLC), an NGO established by Nuhu Kwajafa, a philanthropist from Nigeria, and generously supported by Igho Charles Sanomi II, a prominent Nigerian oil tycoon, is making a significant contribution to Nigerian children in need of surgical interventions, both domestically and internationally. The organization will generously donate cheques amounting to over N100 million to assist these children in accessing the necessary medical procedures.
On Thursday, July 13, 2023, a ceremony will be held in Abuja where deserving Nigerian children in need will receive the presentation of the cheques. These cheques aim to support and assist these children in their challenging circumstances.
The funds, amounting to approximately $160,000.00, were raised through a generous donation during a birthday and charity dinner hosted by Sanomi, the Grand Patron of GIPLC, in Paris, France, on May 20, 2023. The presentation of the cheques in Abuja on Thursday, July 13, 2023, will be attended by a multitude of children who have already benefited from GIPLC’s Touching Lives Everyday Projects throughout Nigeria.
