Miss Universe Lagos Most Beautiful Girl 2022, Queen Adetutu Oshinowo, has expressed her happiness for making senior citizens in Igbogbo, Igbogbo/Bayeku Local Council Development Area of Ikorodu Division, Lagos State, Southwest, Nigeria, smile during the Xmas season.
The beauty queen, who spent the season visiting old people in their homes and sharing food packs to them, said that it is part of her duty to share love and bring happiness to the people.
Adetutu, while speaking with our reporter after extending the kind gesture to the aged mothers and fathers on December 25, also called on organisations and other stakeholders interested in looking after aged people, for partnership.
“As a beauty queen, my duty is to give back to the community, both immediate and extended. We have so many aged people in the community that we tend to overlook their needs, maybe because their situation isn’t pressing yet”, she said.
“We need to show them love, which was why I decided to celebrate Christmas with the elderly. Sincerely, it gladdens my heart to see them smile, and I will say this is the best Christmas for me. Going forward, I will like to partner with concerned stakeholders in the community so we can make this a tradition.
“We don’t have to wait for special events before we show love”, Adetutu added.
She expressed her yuletide greetings to all her fans and residents, while also charging them to endeavor to collect their PVCs which, according to her, they would use to exercise their civic rights.
“I’m using this opportunity to wish everyone a merry Christmas, and prosperous new year in advance. Also, I want to urge the people, both young and old, to go and collect their PVC as this is the only ticket to choose correctly come 2023 elections”, she said.
