Love, they say knows no differences as it reaches out to all. Godwin Chukwunenye Ezeemo, an Industrialist and humble Philanthropist lived up to the virtues of love when he left the comfort of his home and the grandeur of expensive 5-star hotels to celebrate the 2016 anniversary of his birthday with inmates of Basden Memorial Special Education Centre, a School for the Blind, Deaf and Dumb at Isulo, Orumba South L.G.A in Anambra State.

The philanthropist who has made it a custom to celebrate his birthday anniversaries with the less privileged in the society, decided to show his deepest love and care to these special kids this year, having celebrated that of last year with Prisoners.

Ezeemo was moved to tears by the sonorous and rhythmic resonance of the songs these special kids rendered to him. According to a post on his official facebook page, he said, “there is no gift bigger than celebrating my 2016 birthday anniversary with these special kids. It is not their fault that they are blind, deaf or dumb, and we that are complete should not see our completeness as a result of our righteousness”.

Ezeemo recounted that the love from the kids was so much that he and his lovely wife had to join the dance. He still wondered how deaf and dumb pupils were able to perform a choreographed dance, and their steps were in perfect uniformity, even when they were unable to hear the sound of the songs. It goes a long way to show the exceeding grace of God, and I can’t thank him enough for adding another year to my years.

Ezeemo promised to support the school in every way he could, as he donated 2 Giant grass cutters, N100K, and promised them a complete Band set. Not including the foodstuffs and the prepared meal and drinks that he celebrated his birthday with.

The students recounted their joy at his kind gesture to celebrate with them, even when he had all the money that could afford him a five star celebration at his home or hotel. They expressed the honour and privilege to have him as a guest.
