“I am thrilled to see the smile on the faces of these hardworking bike riders,” Bishop Eze said during the fuel giveaway.
“As a church, we are committed to serving the community and making a positive impact on people’s lives.”
The free fuel giveaway, which took place at the Eha Amufu Motor Park, attracted hundreds of bike riders who were thrilled to receive the unexpected gift.
