The Rochas Foundation has kicked off a new initiative that seeks to get 10 million indigent kids off the street into schools.

This was disclosed on Wednesday, October 22, by the director-general of the foundation, Uchechi Rochas, while briefing journalists in Abuja.

According to her, the initiative called Rochas Education Aid and Development Initiative (READ) would kick off in 2020.

She also stated that N1billion have been budgeted to fund the project through other non-governmental organisations.

“Recent statistics show that there are about 10 million out of school children in Nigeria, an alarming situation that calls for urgent action to get illiteracy to its barest minimum.

“This is why Rochas Foundation is leading efforts to get these children not only into school but with the needed aids and support,” Rochas said.
She said the foundation would be, spearheading concerted efforts with the support of the relevant stakeholders as well as interested civil society and non-governmental organisations to achieve its aim.

She revealed that the Rochas Foundation also intends to give grants to 1,000 indigenous foundations that are making an evident impact in the education sector.

More than 20,000 children from the poorest of the poor have benefitted from the free education scheme of the foundation.

Numbers inflation. 10million is probably equivalent to 100,000. Same contract inflation style. Congratulations to the lucky beneficiaries though.

its honest, to tell Ibos that they aint meant for Aso Rock, no matter the tantrums they thow

Its being 50 years since we kept you out of power, and we want to hold you for another 100 years, ..

Things can change if Ibos apologise for killing Samuel Ladoke Akintola, or Beg for killing Sarduna and Tafa Balewa

When will they employ ten million teachers to teach these children? Will you enrol kid's in school without teachers to teach them?

Rochas with d plan. If u know u know.

Please let's be fair with the kind of judgement we gonna pass on Rochas, this man has been doing this even before his political career kick started.

10million

Something FG no fit do

Anyways, these days Charity foundations Na big business most especially for polithiefcians

Rochas billionaire For mouth they say his a billionaire yet him and his family stole even chairs very greedy human ,anything foundation from rochas is fraud ,he think say northerners go vote him

Going by what he did to Imo state, Rochas is fake. It was this foundation thing that made imo think he was a Saviour. Now he is back to it and of course a combination of illiteracy and gullibility will get him support.

Just as the same way he came to power as governor. This wicked man ruled Imo state for 8 years without the full arms of Government. He's eying for presidency. Lol �

Ok, what he cannot do in 8 good years as a Gov.
This people are so shameless.
Most of this ppl should be rocking their life in jail by now but this country called naija everything goes once you belong to the right political party all your corruption sins/records will be forgiven.

What a country, God pls have mercy.

The Abuja office was under lock and key all 8years he held on as Imo State Governor, as government money no dey again, he don remember this his NGO wey him dey take get money from international donors! Unity House is beginning to bubble once again
