The Portharcourt City One Love Story

 

“About four to five years ago, a group of Portharcourt city men and women reminiscing on their growing up years that were filled with love and laughter and the concern for each other’s wellbeing, decided to do something about this great spirit that is gradually being lost due to the pressure of life Thus Portharcourt City One Love was conceived”.

 

What is the “One Love Spirit”

 

It is a Spirit desirous of embellishing the virtue of Love, Peace and Unity in the hearts of those who were either born, schooled, resided or worked in Port Harcourt through the 50s to the 80s. It is not a political union, it does not consider religion or ethnicity but camaraderie built through the years of growing up in the city.
