Excerpts from the National President’s write-up dated June 8, 2012 titled
“ABOUT US” , for the 2012 National Convention in Chicago:
“In the few years that IANA has been in existence, it has dedicated its energy and resources to executing projects that touch the lives of Issele people in Nigeria.. Some of the association activities include provision of desks and chairs for pupils, chairs and tables for teachers in the primary schools in Issele-Uku, Issele-Mkpitime and Issele-Azagba. In the years following, IANA built water tanks (wells) for nine primary schools in Issele-Uku, two primary schools in Issele-Azagba and one primary school in Issele-Mkpitime at the cost of approximately N3,532,500. Two large halls in two public secondary schools in Issele-Uku used for examinations, student assembly, and other large group activities were renovated at the cost of approximately N2,041,000. Most recently (2010), International Hope Canada, Inc., donated large number of medical equipment and supplies estimated at several million naira through two of our Canadian members. IANA paid N1,146,100 to ship the container to Lagos, Nigeria. The equipment and supplies are in the general Hospital, Issele-Uku, Delta-State.”
Excerpts from the National President’s Welcome Address 2004 IANA National Convention:
“In July 2002 we convened in Los Angeles, CA where once again we raised money that allowed us to begin our first development project, the Primary (Elementary) Schools School infrastructure.”
“We as association accomplished our first development task at home with the money raised from both conventions. The Issele Association of North America, in 2002 within three weeks constructed 4 underground water tanks for 4 primary schools costing close to half a million naira. We constructed chairs, tables and desks for teachers and their pupils for over a million naira all of which when converted to US dollars is approximately $15,000.”
