I started the programme like a joke, whereby listeners wins gifts on the programme. On one of the edition, I think the third edition, a pregnant woman called on the programme and narrated her problems, saying she has nothing to eat with her family. I was touched by what she said that they, I then invited her and gave her some food stuffs and also a Little's money. Some people even called on the programme to give her gifts, during the programme, another person called and also beg for helping hands, which people turned out to. This is how helping people started. I spent more money from my pocket to help the needy, and God blesses me beyond my expectations since I started, even people also contributed to it. This is why I thought within me that there is reward in giving a helping hands.
I also want to honour some people in presenting awards to those who have been contributing to the programme in helping people.
