We Are Quietly Looking Up The Tinubu’s Government, Says President/ Founder.
By Don Peter Okoro.
The President/Founder of SweetHome Africa Humanitarian Foundation, Dr. Austin Ifeanyichukwu Epunam JP has stated that they are presently looking up to the new regime of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to deliver excellent governance to the good people of Nigeria.
He stated this during an interview with the Press shortly after the Celebration of the 20th Anniversary of the Foundation which he said comprised of 5 years in Europe and 15 years in Nigeria.
According to him, they were in Europe catering for Nigerians that were incarcerated in Prisons. In his words:”We used to visit them in Prisons and Hospitals to take care of them, but when Chief Olusegun Obasanjo as President, visited Germany in 2003, he encouraged those of us in the diaspora to come back and help in building a New Nigeria and effect good governance.
We then came back and through the mercies and miracle of God and an Act of Charity which God used me to do for a stranded lady on the street of Abuja, I got into the State House and I was Registered at the Aso Rock Presidential Villa Chapel. From there, we registered the Foundation in Nigeria 15 years ago.”
Assessing the event of the day, he said:”As for the 20th Anniversary/ Award Giving Ceremony, every Praise and Glory should be to God. The turnout was massive, people came from far and near, the few that couldn’t make it sent powerful delegations.
These are people who have done so well in the country. We couldn’t have asked for a better turnout. We are very happy with the massive show of support and solidarity.”
On the challenges they are presently facing, he offered:”The challenge are just the normal challenges of funding. We use our funds to run the Foundation and sometimes we had to sell our properties to make sure things are moving and today, God has crowned our efforts with glory.
I always tell people that the more you talk bad about your country, the more you go down. Why not come out and do your own bit? Say something good about your country and contribute your own quota.
See how we came from Europe and joined the Presidential Villa thereby offering both Spiritual and Physical services to the country and connecting our own people especially the Christians to the Presidency.
We have taken not less than 100 people to the Villa. These are people who would not have gotten the opportunity to smell where Aso Rock is located. And many of them were favoured with Contracts, Federal Appointments, Confirmation of Appointments and all kinds of blessings. In the Pilgrim Commission, we have through Private Sector Initiative gotten Billionaires to sponsor over 100 Christians from the South East to Jerusalem without recording a single abscondee.
We established a Tourism Company called Zukky Travels & Tours Ltd. which is Registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC)
Abuja, to assist and properly eduacate youths travelling without proper guidance.
As an Individual, I have invested so much in real estate business which I learnt from my late father. We have faithfully and consistently served 4 Nigerian Presidents through the State House Christian Chaplaincy. We believe in the Nigerian Project of a New Nigeria coming up soon.
We call on the Christian Leaders especially those in politics like the President of the Senate, the First Lady of the Federal Republic, the SGF and the Deputy Speaker to encourage the Brethren as they step into their new offices.
We need strong, creative, resourceful and charismatic Leaders at the NCPC and other National Institutions. If the present Government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu invites us, we’ll respond.
We have done our best and we’ll continue to do more.” On his projection in the next 5 years, he revealed:” All powers belongs to God, both negative and positive. God can use anything to make something.
In 5 years time, we hope that SweetHome would have become a household name in Nigeria and we would have achieved our goal of creating awarness on the dangers of unplanned trip and unplanned living abroad. Thank you.”
