A Non-Governmental Organisation focused on supporting children without parental care and families at risk, SOS Children’s Villages, has decried the over 17.5 million orphans living in Nigeria with little or no support for them.
The concern was raised on Thursday by the organisation’s Fund Development Manager, Thelma Ojelabi, in a statement issued by its Head of Brand and Communication, Rhoda Ocheche, to commemorate the World Development Information Day (WDI).
The WDI Day is commemorated every October 24th to highlight and create awareness of developmental issues and the importance of sustainable progress.
The organisation emphasised that addressing Nigeria’s challenges, particularly those affecting children, demands a united approach with strong and effective partnerships.
