On Saturday, October 18, 2025, private legal practitioner, Lawyer Isang Sylvester, extended a generous hand to 22 individuals across the constituency by donating bags of cement to help improve their living conditions.
The initiative follows an announcement by the lawyer inviting individuals who needed cement to put their dwelling places in order to come forward.
I don’t have anyone to help fix the floor of my room. When I heard there was someone willing to support, I reached out, and today I’m a beneficiary. I don’t know him, but I’ll keep praying for him
This is Lawyer Sylvester’s little way of ensuring that those in need can have a comfortable place to lay their heads after a hard day’s work,
The beneficiaries include widows, the elderly, and persons living with disabilities from communities such as Zimuoperi, Nandomle, Danko, Nandomkpee, Goziiri, Ketuo, Airport area, Pataal, Konyugang, Pufien, Baseble, Bu-Pigvuo, Duotange, and Segru.
Each beneficiary received three bags of cement, which were transported to their respective homes at no cost. In addition, Lawyer Sylvester has committed to covering the cost of workmanship, while beneficiaries are expected to provide sand or gravel for the work.
Hon. Aabe-inir Pontianus, who coordinated the presentation on behalf of the lawyer and his foundation, explained that the gesture was part of the lawyer’s ongoing efforts to support the less privileged in the community.
“This is Lawyer Sylvester’s little way of ensuring that those in need can have a comfortable place to lay their heads after a hard day’s work,” Hon. Pontianus said.
The beneficiaries expressed deep gratitude for the support. A 62-year-old woman from one of the beneficiary communities, who preferred to remain anonymous, shared her joy:
“I don’t have anyone to help fix the floor of my room. When I heard there was someone willing to support, I reached out, and today I’m a beneficiary. I don’t know him, but I’ll keep praying for him,” one beneficiary said.
A local mason from each beneficiary’s community will be hired to carry out the repairs, with payment taken care of by the foundation.
