… as Koroma, Mutfwang laud Uzochukwu’s humanitarian impacts in Nigeria



Stanel Group/The Delborough Lagos Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Dr. Stanley Uzochukwu, has again taken humanitarian impacts further in Nigeria by donating a personal residence for an orphanage and building a state-of-the-art WAEC and NECO approved school for orphans and less privileged Nigerians in Jos, the Plateau State capital.

‎The African youths model announced the donation while empowering widows, disabled and less privileged Nigerians with over 3000 modern sewing machines, grinding machines, wheelchairs and food items worth over One Billion Naira (N1,000,000,000.00) through his foundation, Stanley Uzochukwu Foundation, to mark his birthday.

‎The Foundation is committed to improving the living standards of orphans, widows, the disabled and other less privileged Nigerians across the thirty-six (36) states in Nigeria and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, through education, mentorship and empowerment.

‎The commitment has kick-started with the official commissioning of the rebuilding of JOFIN orphanage home housing a well-equipped and computerised WAEC and NECO approved school, in addition to donating his residence for orphans in Jos today, Wednesday, 30th July 2025.

Uzochukwu did not just build the home and the school for the orphans and less privileged Nigerians in Jos but he also equipped the school with modern science equipment, computer lab, pays salaries of all staff and caregivers, feeds and awards free education to all the students (orphans and less privileged) at all levels as well as providing for their basic needs.

‎Recall that it was in September 2024 when The Delborough Lagos boss’ attention was drawn to the starving orphans and the dilapidated state of the JOFIN Orphanage Home in Jos. Uzochukwu immediately directed the SUF Chief Executive Officer and her team to reach out to the management of the Home. The team relocated to Jos and fed the suffering orphans for over a week, treated them medically and provided their educational needs, including uniforms, sandals, books, toiletries, soaps, body creams, etc and enough raw food for them to date.

‎It was then that the Foundation brought succour to the orphans with a promise to transform the Home by rebuilding the structure, equipping the school, drilling a solar-powered borehole and providing food items and all other basic needs of the suffering children.

‎Having completed all the promises/projects in less than a year, Uzochukwu returned to Jos to commission the transformed orphanage and to also mark his birthday with the orphans, the less privileged and widows alike.

‎A remarkable highlight of the event was the presentation of 3,500 sewing machines, grinding machines, wheelchairs and food items to widows, disabled and less privileged Nigerians by the Executive Governor of Plateau State, Caleb Mutfwang and supported by former President of Sierra Leone, Ernest Bai Koroma.

‎Addressing the crowd, Uzochukwu said, “I am only fulfilling a covenant made with God today and I am indeed grateful to Him”

‎He urged the beneficiaries to maximise the opportunity, saying, “Don’t sell the equipment. My wife is coming to train you on tailoring and set up a fashion design for each of you.”

‎Uzochukwu thanked his excellencies, Mutfwang and Koroma, for giving the widows and the disabled persons the privilege to see a sitting governor and a former president in their midst.

‎Lauding Uzochukwu’s humanitarian impacts on the Plateau people, Mutfwang said, “I rejoice with the beneficiaries of SUF Initiatives and gestures. This gives honour to God Almighty. The prayers of the women and the less privileged will keep you progressing in life.

‎”I enjoy that other well-to-do and influential Nigerians emulate Dr Stanley.”

‎On his part, President Koroma thanked Uzochukwu for his humanitarian impacts while congratulating him on his birthday.

‎Koroma urged other influential Nigerians to emulate Uzochukwu to provide relief for the less privileged Nigerians and also charged the beneficiaries to utilise the gifts with determination to make something out of it so that they would also be helpers to others in the society.

‎In October 2024, Stanley Uzochukwu Foundation gave N40m empowerment grants to 80 SMEs and over the years, the Foundation has trained, mentored and empowered over 5,000 Nigerian youths through its annual empowerment program tagged ‘Master Class With Stanel’ initiative.
