Speaking at one of the locations, the branch chairman, Professor Charity Emelie said that they were trying to do charity and show love.
“We are showing love to the less privileged, times are tough and the masses are hungry and suffering.These food items are not enough but it is our little way of supporting the residents in times like this.
