The Tide Online: "Charity Trust Fund Board bill now before LSHA
• Friday, Jul 28, 2006

A bill for a law to establish the Charity Trust Fund Board is now at the committee stage in the Lagos State House of Assembly.

The bill, according to its sponsor, Mr Adelabu Onobiyo (Alimoso 1), seeks to empower the state government to administer charities for the upliftment of the welfare of those in dire need in Lagos State.

The lawmaker explained that the bill became necessary in view of the mega-city posture of Lagos and the need to cater for the less privileged."
