Women build 95-room hostel

The Women Ministry of the Anglican Diocese of Nnewi is building an ultra modern three storey hostel block for students of the Nwafor Orizu College of Education Nsugbe (NOCOEN).

President, Mothers Union of the Church, Mrs E.N Okpala led women of the church to inspect the facility which is 80 per cent completed.

Mrs Okpala expressed satisfaction at the level of work by the contractors handling the project, pointing out that the hostel was initiated to help alleviate the problems of accommodation in the college.

Mrs Okpala, represented by wife of Nnewi Archdeaconry, Mrs Chinyere Egwuenu, further informed that the hostel will assist in curbing immoralities in the school and enhance better reading atmosphere judging by the facilities in the project.

She said the building contains 95 rooms and would accomodate about 200 students. This is coming as the Anglican Diocesan Health and Community Development Centre has supported 209 vulnerable children with relief materials.

The programme Coordinator, Mr Timothy Nnoruem said the group is catering for every child that is experiencing lack of care.

The traditional ruler of Ukpor Igwe Dr Felix Onyimmadu expressed gratitude to the NGO for taking care of his subjects.
