One of the beneficiaries Ikwo Bob, praised the philanthropic gesture of Ricketts and further commended him for braving present economic odds and digging deep to put smiles on the faces of the widows, many of who are enduring torrid times because of the death of their spouses.

Mary Denise Mbang, another beneficiary, commended the widow selection process, stressing that the selection process was transparent and accommodated several widows who were not accommodated in the last exercise.
