The Ojodu Local Council Development Area, Lagos State, under the leadership of its Mayor, Hon. David Olusegun Odunmbaku, says it has commenced the distribution of its Grassroots Benefits vouchers to the beneficiaries.
Established in 2021, the Grassroots Benefits scheme is a corporate social responsibility (CSR) targeted at residents of the LCDA who do not have access to the government. Currently, over 4, 000 residents have so far registered for the programme.
This is the second edition of the programme, aside from the food stamps, there are other benefits of the scheme which include training, scholarship and free medical aid.
Grassroots benefits beneficiaries are picked randomly every quarter, registration takes place online via https://grassroots.com.ng/register/ , at the Council Secretariat and the six political wards of Ojodu.
The team will be going round wards, markets and remote areas of Ojodu to get more people registered for the scheme.
The Council Mayor, Odunmbaku, urged corporate organisations and entrepreneurs in the Council area to support the scheme.
The Odunmbaku led administration has reassured residents and business owners that it will continue to deliver dividends of democracy to every nook and cranny of Ojodu.
