SHADE-IN organises football match between youths of Aba-Ebira community and NCCF

On the 4th of September 2017, Saving Hand Development Initiative (SHADE-IN) organised a football match between the youths of Aba-Ebira community and Nigerian Christian Corpers Fellowship (NCCF). The match lasted for over an hour (30 minutes for each half).

The match was played at the field of Apex International School, Ekiti State. The match ended with scores of 3-3 on both sides. Light refreshment of water and biscuits were given to all participants, both players and spectators. Everyone was excited about the outcome of the football match.

Before SHADE-IN started work in Aba-Ebira there were no collaborations between the people and NCCF. SHADE-IN has been able to bridge the gap in relationship between NCCF and the community.
