The Embassy of the State of Kuwait donated foodstuff to 600 Nigerians for Eid.
The donation, done in conjunction with Attawasul Worldwide Foundation (ATWOF), was done in Ibadan, Oyo State, and environs. The beneficiaries included the elderly, widows and other less-privileged.
Country Director of ATWOF Alhaji Bashir Onilogbo said the gesture was to alleviate the suffering of the poor and needy in the society.
