Encourage women to breast-feed their babies, Olu of Warri tells Inner Wheel Club members

The Olu of Warri, Ogiame Ikenwoli, has charged members of Inner Wheel Club to encourage women to breast-feed their babies consistently, in order for the babies to be mentally balanced and their immune system strengthened to fight against diseases.

The Warri Monarch gave the charge Friday February 7, at his palace in Warri, while playing host to members of Inner Wheel Club, who converged in Delta State, for their 33rd annual Conference/Rally.

While frowning at the attitude of women who do not breast-feed their babies enough, The Olu of Warri commended members of Inner Wheel Club for putting smile on the faces of the less privileged and expressed delight over the activities of the Club.

In her remarks, the First African International President, Yemi Alatise, disclosed that for the 33 years existence of the Club, the visit to The Olu of Warri, Ogiame Ikenwoli, was the first to any king in Warri.

She outlined training of widows/empowerment, training of children, computer training, supporting the less privileged and provision of loans, without interest as some of the core objectives of the Inner Wheel Club.

The National President of Inner Wheel Club, Adeyemi Adekemi, commended the Olu of Warri for his hospitality and support to the Club.
