Olisa Metuh turned 50 on Saturday, November 28, 2015. Instead of declaring a society birthday party in a five star arena, Chief Metuh chose to share with the downtrodden and less privileged.
On Friday, November 27, 2015, he took his lovely wife, friends and relations to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) camp in Wassa, Abuja where he shared meals with the IDPs and handed over loads of various food items, including grains, beverages and drinks to them.
During the celebration, Chief Metuh took out time to visit various homes in the camp, where he met with families. He was deeply touched by their deplorable condition, especially the absence of basic amenities like drinking water, which prompted him to pledge to collaborate with relevant government agencies to provide potable water in the camp.
The overjoyed IDPs sang and cut the birthday cake with the PDP spokesman.Speaking at the event, the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) IDP Relief Coordinator for the FCT, Mrs. Amina Hassan, commended Chief Metuh for his gesture, which she described as the largest intervention from an individual to the IDPs.
