The entertainer who is in charge of the MUMA GEE Foundation Project and Programme while expressing concern about the failure of government, religious Bodies, companies and some parents to ensure adequate cares for the younger generation, called on Rivers indigenes who are into entertainment to return home to fix the homes rather than remaining in Lagos State. 


The High Chief revealed that the project and programme is targeted at carrying along about fifty rural teenagers between the age of thirteen and above each local government in other to grow Rivers youths.

According to Muma Gee, talent knows no boundaries,as the mission of the foundation is to unearth the talents of children who might never have the chance to showcase their abilities otherwise.
