Instinctively propelled to bring succor to the pains of their fellow colleagues whose shops at UTC Shopping Complex Garki Abuja were abruptly demolished by the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), the worthy intervention of Alhaji Yahaya Amfani led Nigerian Medium & Large-Scale Printers League (NMLSPL) has no doubt made thousands of people that make up family members, siblings, friends and associates of the affected print & allied practitioners have sense of belonging, renewed hope on humanity and great determination to bounce back from their sudden losses.
Consequent upon the unexpected demolition, the seven-member body had swung into action contributing a whooping N3million each for the victims.

Not only that, the noble action was not only commended far and near but has also driven other well-meaning Printers to equally donate without coercion. Thus, aside the combined N21million from Binani Press LTD, KAS Digital Press LTD, Marvelous Mike Press LTD, Perfect Printers LTD, Petra Press LTD, Ramadan Press LTD, and Yaliam Press LTD, WHERE To Print gathered that other publicly declared donations came from Printway LTD (N1million) and Beautiful Prints (N100, 000). Therefore, this SPECIAL FEATURE ARTICLE is specially dedicated to each of these amazing members of NMLSPL (as well as the publicly mentioned free-will donors) in an effort to appreciate their noble gestures; for others to emulate them; and to encourage more of such virtuous causes for a united, strong and prosperous industry.
