VINCENT OPURUM: THE PHILANTHROPIST

Vincent

It looks like Nollywood actors are beginning to toe the line that their foreign counterparts have followed for years now. During the flooding incidents last year. Chinedu Ikedieze (AKI) and Osita Iheme (PawPaw) visited the camps of victims of the flood incidents in Anambra and Delta States, bringing succour to the afflicted peoples of those areas. They took along food, clothing items and money to alleviate the sufferings of people. The Aneke twins Chidinma and Chidiebere also celebrated their birthday with Motherless babies in Lagos recently.

Nollywood hunk Vicent Opurum looks to have joined the trend as he paid an unscheduled visit to a motherless babies home, Destiny Orphanage in Jos Plateau State.

Reports published in the Vanguard newspapers states that the star actor expressed the desire to have the priviledged  see to the constant welfare of orphans in the country.  

Moved by the plight of children who have been made orphans due to the on-going crisis in the state. He said that it is regrettable that the people of the state have continued to live in fear and the children have continued to suffer.

Let’s just hope that other celebrities will join this philanthropic effort and share out some of their immense wealth with the less privileged in our society. Well done Vincent.
