The family of the late All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain, Chief Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, commemorated his one-year memorial anniversary with a series of charitable initiatives aimed at honoring his legacy of philanthropy and service to society.

Led by his wife, Mrs. Bose Ojougboh, the family undertook a humanitarian outreach under the ‘Dr. Cairo Ojougboh Foundation,’ a family-led initiative established to immortalize him and continue his lifelong commitment to education, healthcare, and social welfare.

As part of the memorial activities, the Foundation visited Erigbe Primary School in Agbor, Ika South Local Government Area, where Dr. Ojougboh had received his early education. School bags, writing materials, and food packs were distributed to pupils, with the family encouraging them to take their education seriously and strive for excellence.

Speaking at the event, Mrs. Ojougboh reaffirmed the family’s dedication to sustaining the ideals of the late politician. “We are here to celebrate the life of my husband, Late Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, who passed on a year ago. In his honor, we decided to give back to society. He was a man who valued education and was always willing to help others. It is only fitting that we continue his legacy through acts of generosity,” she stated.

The outreach also extended to Central Hospital, Agbor, where financial assistance was provided to patients to help with their treatment costs. Moving through the medical wards, Mrs. Ojougboh and her entourage offered support to those in need, receiving prayers and words of gratitude from beneficiaries and hospital staff.

The family further visited Salve Regina Children’s Home in Agbor, donating cash, food items, and toiletries to the children. The Matron of the home expressed deep appreciation to the Ojougboh family, commending their commitment to sustaining the late politician’s legacy of compassion and social impact.

Reflecting on her husband’s contributions to society, Mrs. Ojougboh emphasized that his legacy of generosity and service to humanity would endure. “Dr. Cairo was a selfless man who touched many lives. His contributions to the Nigerian political landscape, his mark in Agbor Kingdom, Delta State, and the country at large, will always be remembered. He may be gone, but his impact will continue to be felt for generations,” she said.
