Former president of the Republic of Sierra Leone, Ernest Koroma has commended the Stanley Uzochukwu Foundation for its laudable efforts on human capital development, empowerment and job creation that are hugely impacting the Nigerian economy.
Stanley Uzochukwu Foundation has organized mentorship and business master class for the selected 80 SMEs the Foundation had empowered with N40 million Naira.
H.E Dr Koroma gave the commendations during the grant ceremony of the Stanley Uzochukwu Foundation empowering 80 Nigerian Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) with forty million naira (N40m) held at The Delborough Lagos hotel in Lagos, Nigeria on Saturday, 5th October, 2023.
Commending the efforts of the Foundation and its founder, Dr Stanley Uzochukwu, President Koroma said, “I’m overwhelmed with what I have experienced, heard, seen here today and it gives me hope in African successful young men like Dr Stanley.
The President who assisted in the presentation of the grants to beneficiaries said, “The moment I experienced today is the moment that’s required in all African Nations to grow her economy.
The government cannot do it alone without private individual players such as this Foundation is playing.”
The former President noted that the bedrock of every nation’s economy is the Small and Medium Enterprises while enjoying other African business leaders to emulate the gesture in their respective nations.
The grants ceremony had in attendance the Sierra Leone ex-President, Ernest Bai Koroma; Providus bank Executive Director, Adeoye Ojuroye; Blake Resort Managing Director/Chairman, Chief Uzochukwu Akunedozi; Managing Director of Bank of Industry (BoI), Mr Emmanuel Azuka Okofu; Director-General of Rochas Okorocha Foundation, Miss Uchechi Rochas and other dignitaries.

We are suffering here in sierra Leone
Useless leader, he has never done such for his people in makeni.
I am really disappointed in this of our formal leader of our country called sierra Leone. Instead of him to come and give back to our country that he has reportedly robb why he was in leadership in which he said that our country was run as business intetity in which our country resources and financial services were rotted in broad daylight including his majority of his official.
So please for me I am not interested or move by this wicked human bean. All I can say here is let’s our lord God almighty countiue to respond towards his behavior in Jesus Christ name amen.
Shame on you Sierraloaded. The headline is very misleading as if it ebk money when he is just doing presentation on behalf of an organization.
We are waiting for those Apcian to respond, I know they will say positive things about him
Stop misleading the public
Oh salon we ex president nor help e yon peoples, e go help other country.
God will continue to protect you @ pa Koroma 🙏 ✨️
No need to be Disapointed, that is the national anthem of Sierra Leonean politician…..They are all the same
Please understand the writeup before commenting. He only assisted in handing over the cheque and not the provider of the said grant.

The man is now a Nigeria citizen….. Bio na man gbain 🤣🤣🤣… Tey now pa Ernest you nr wel 8….. Try cam now mr cam try d country way🤔
The Headline is very misleading. One needs to read the content to understand that the money was NOT provided by EBK.
am not sure
Pls Sierraloaded change the Headline. This not good. The money is not from the Former President. He was invited during the Grand open Ceremony. Stop giving us fake headlines pls
But I got it on phonex that he donated $25,000 to Nigerians business guys. So let us underline the word donated and the word handover please you guys stop deceiving us. Our former president donated the money to them right. You can donate something by handing it over to the individual or the group of people you want to offer. I CAME IN PEACE
