A philanthropist,  Joseph Ilo, also known as Ugogbuzue, from Obe Village, in Anaocha Local Government Area of Anambra State, has called on wealthy individuals to assist the poor and less privileged in the society.
Addressing newsmen in his hometown, Agulu, he expressed concern over the high rate of hunger and its impact on the community.
Ilo highlighted his own efforts to support people within his reach, particularly the youth and shared his personal experiences, including spending approximately N37 million to help individuals who had their lands grabbed due to lack of legal representation.
 He emphasized his distaste for intimidation and harassment of people, especially when it comes to land grabbing.
The philanthropist recalled a recent initiative where he invited medical professionals from outside the country to provide treatment to children in his community, adding that he empowered youths by providing shuttle buses, paying school fees, and offering housing support.
He advised the youth to remain focused and avoid get-rich-quick schemes. He urged the federal government to create jobs and alleviate the sufferings of the masses, noting that many people are struggling and dying due to poverty.
By sharing his story and concerns, Joseph Ilo hopes to inspire others to join him in making positive impacts on their communities.
