Borno Flood: Tinubu’s Sons, Friends Donate Vital Supplies To Victims
By Francis Okoye
Youth enthusiast and son of Nigeria’s President, Seyi Tinubu, on Friday, sympathised with the people of Borno State over the devastating flood that recently ravaged Maiduguri, the state capital.
Seyi Tinubu, who was accompanied by his brother, Yinka Tinubu, friends and associates, made donations worth over N500 million on behalf of himself, friends and associates.
Known for his philanthropic gesture, especially towards the youth, Seyi said that the visit was the first step towards contributing to ameliorating the current difficult situation of the young people affected by the flood. He assured that the intervention would continue until Borno State, especially Maiduguri, see the light again.
Recall that President Bola Tinubu and other dignitaries had visited Borno State within the week in solidarity with its people.
Addressing the State governor, Babagana Zulum, and other important dignitaries, who received him and entourage at the Government House in Maiduguri, the youth advocate said the people of Borno State are known for their resilience even amidst insecurity that ravaged the state for years in the past.
He, however, expressed optimism that current situation too will pass and the state will come out stronger.
