21st December Set For Christmas With Juvenile Offenders And Celebrities.
Borstal home for juvenile offenders under Nigeria Prisons System in Adigbe Abeokuta Ogun State is where young offenders between age 15-20, missing children who can't locate their parents, some who committed crimes, while some brought in by their parents because they've grown so big beyond parental control are kept.
In 2012, NDLEA Ambassador, Lamboginny discovered the Home and states "My point is that this young male offenders need to be engaged with one form of education be it formal education or a vocational training. If we have close to 300 teenage offenders locked up without distracting them with some form of education, these children may end up becoming even more dangerous to the society at large when they get out. With reference to these, several unreplied letters have been written to the Government for support but we cannot always leave it all to them. So therefore, I am calling on every Nigerian to please come in any form of support so that this boys could get the proper foundation they require to become useful for themselves and the society at large when they get out".
To implement a quick action, come Dec 21st 2013,time 10am, Artist /NDLEA Ambassador Anti crime fighter, Lamboginny with some top entertainers will be live at the Juvenile Prison in Abeokuta Ogun State to celebrate Christmas in grand style with the teenage offenders. This is surely going to be a lasting experience for those children and it will be an avenue to show them how important they are to the community.
Donations like gifts, cloth, books, games, vocational materials, spots wears, medication, refreshments,etc.
will be appreciated from the general public on or before that day.
There will also be an Inauguration of a four 5 aside football team for them. Kanu Heart Foundation has taken one team so 3 more to go. Open too any sponsor to pick up. You all know the story of the rejected stone!
(This will also be a tribute to great African Father Madiba).
