A STORY TO TELL ABOUT MY EYE PROBLEM.
MY name is ONYIA CALISTUS ONYEKACHUKWU from Ngwo in Udi LGA of Enugu State. I have been having a serious eye problem. A few years ago, when the pains came heavily in my eyes, I quickly wrote to my two representatives at the national assembly to help me.
None of them could attend to me. Recently, just last month, June 2020, when my eye problem became too bad with severe pains which makes me not to see anything nearer to me at all, I wrote to the two again through SMS but to no avail.
Just yesterday, I posted my eye problem across a platform, MAURICE EMEKA AKUEME took it up immediately and made sure treatment started today July 16th 2020.
To God be the Glory, it went well. Thanks to Sir Maurice EMEKA AKUEME, the President MAURICE AKUEME FOUNDATION (MAF) for offsetting the whole payments for the tests and surgery. God bless him immensely".
