Philanthropic Businessman, Mr. Egbudu Mathew Gives Back to the Community

 

In a world where kindness and generosity are often overlooked, Mr. Egbudu Mathew, a business leader and distinguished son of Yala, shines brightly as a beacon of hope. His selfless acts of philanthropy have touched the hearts of many, reminding us that humanity is fostered through benevolence, not broken.

As the revered theologian Karl Rahner once said, “Man is a beneficiary of another man’s benevolence.” Mr. Egbudu’s remarkable display of corporate social responsibility is a testament to this profound truth. By subsidizing transportation costs for students commuting from Yala Local Government Area to Calabar, he has brought immense relief to numerous families, lifting the burdens of the harsh economy off their shoulders.

What’s truly remarkable about Mr. Egbudu’s gesture is that he chose to forgo personal luxuries, denying himself and his family a well-deserved vacation, to put smiles on the faces of those in need. His selflessness is a shining example of the transformative power of kindness as the student-beneficiaries and their families continue to testify across various media channels.

The impact of Mr. Egbudu’s generosity extends far beyond the individual beneficiaries. It inspires us to acknowledge and appreciate other notable Yala sons and daughters who have made significant contributions to our community, including: Distinguished Sen. Associate Prof. Stephen Adi Odey, Mr. Boni Okache, High Chief Higgins Peters, Hon. Barr. Godwin Offiono, and Hon. Brian Odey.

As we lean on the Latin adage “Quid quid bonum, quid quid pulchrum, quid quid honestrum, dignum lauda est” (“Whatever is good, whatever is pleasant, whatever is honest, is worthy of praise”), we recognize that acknowledging and praising these individuals will only encourage them to continue their good work.

To Mr. Egbudu Mathew, we offer our heartfelt gratitude and commendation for his remarkable gesture. May his selflessness inspire our young generation and everyone else to make a positive impact in our society, remembering that creating change is a collective effort that begins with our individual acts of kindness.
