Big Brother Naija All Star housemates Neo Akpofure, aka Neo Energy has shown that charity begins at home as he donates to Prisoners in his hometown Warri.
Neo who recently paid a visit to his hometown Warri after coming out of the All Star edition of the BBNaija show, made sure to show some love.
He visited the inmates in the correctional facility and made donations to them through his foundation.
Neo while growing up spent a lot of time with his warden mother at the correctional facility and deemed it necessary to give back to society through the correctional facility while in his hometown Warri.
He took to his Instagram page to share pictures of him at the correctional facility with his mother, staffs of the facility and his donation with the caption.
“Couldn’t have visited my Warri without visiting the Nigerian Correctional service again. Growing up and living inside the prisons because my mum was a warden, I developed a soft spot for some of these prisoners, especially after listening to some of their stories of how life dealt them a bad hand”.
“This is one of the projects I’m intentional and passionate about. One of the core missions of @amakazat_ foundation founded by yours truly is to ensure that there is hope even behind bars, that prisons and penitentiaries in Nigeria continue to serve the purpose of being correctional facilities and in a bid to achieve that we have decided to make sure that these prisoners live under humane conditions whilst being confined until they’re reintegrated back into society,” he added.
Addressing comments on weather the inmates will get the donation or not he stated, “For those saying the inmates won’t get it, I entered the prison & I shared it myself to the prisoners. Thanks for your concern”.
