The dust of last week Ileya is yet to settle as the “MKO” of Osun, Raji Kehinde, CEO, Aaraj Construction Company doled out a huge sum of money to douse the economic tension amongst youths across all political divides in the State. Not to talk of over N50m he gave to empower his Ìsàl¹Ì ÌÌcun Constituents to alleviate their suffering.

It featured packages ranging from toiletries like dettol disinfectant, bath soap, Washing soap, Food items and beverages among others with a recorded proof to show for it.

As the number of beneficiaries increase, so also is the good news and testimonials from these beneficiaries who cannot thank the Founder and the Foundation enough.
