The EOF has been intervening in troubled spots across Benue South such as Agatu, Apa, Otukpo and Ado LGAs.
Dr. Ottah Agbo stressed that, the NGO, during its maiden board meeting in 2024 agreed to shift its intervention to youth education to help indigent youths pursue tertiary education.

The Ozigizaga also said his foundation will soon pay for WAEC/SSCE for all exceptionally brilliant youths of indigent backgrounds as well as announce full fledge scholarship for a select exceptional youths in Benue South from secondary to tertiary level.

While assuring the people of “seeing light at the end of the tunnel,”the Ozigizaga declared that his NGO will soon establish desk offices in the nine LGAs to receive, collate, process, facilitate and actualize the Free JAMB registration for “our youths.”
