In his words, "Today we celebrate the birthday of Sir David Osunde. As he sponsors children in numerous schools, he also seizes the opportunity to celebrate the children, whom he dearly loves. With the gift of children and Sir Osunde, we express our gratitude to the Lord, praying for His continued blessings"
“Sir Osunde is a man of great generosity. He does not hoard his wealth for himself but impacts many lives. If people can learn from him, our country will transform. We are often so self-absorbed and self-centered that we fail to reach out to others. If we show love, our country will improve,” Rev Father Amadi stated.
