Renowned philanthropist, Mrs. Halimat Tejuosho, has joined the league of exceptional philanthropists, including Aliko Dangote and Aminu Dantata, who have demonstrated extraordinary kindness to flood victims in Maiduguri, Borno State.
Tejuosho’s latest donation of relief materials and N15 million cash to affected residents is a testament to her compassion and commitment to supporting those in need.
Prior to the distribution, she paid a courtesy visit to the Shehu of Borno, Abubakar Ibn Umar Garbai El-Kanemi, where she donated essential items, including Indomie, rice, mosquito nets, blankets, and children’s clothing.
In his remarks, Shehu of Borno commended Tejuosho’s kindness and generosity.
The donation, which was coordinated by a staff member of the Borno State Ministry of Education, Idris Ya’u, was distributed at Yerwa Central Primary School in Maiduguri yesterday.
The relief materials included 500 bags of 10kg rice, 500 cartons of Indomie, 500 blankets, and 500 mosquito nets. Additionally, Tejuosho provided N10 million to 100 nursing mothers (N100,000 each) and N5 million to 100 sick children (N50,000 each).
This generous act comes on the heels of donations from other prominent philanthropists, including Aliko Dangote and Aminu Dantata, who each donated N1.5 billion, and the North East Development Commission, which donated N3 billion.
