Governor of Ogun State Dapo Abiodum has posted a “thank you” message to donors in the fierce fight against the scourge of Coronavirus.

The Governor also assured the donors that he would ensure “judicious use” of the donations in a message that reads..

On behalf of the Ogun State people, I appreciate the voluntary humanitarian contributions of Baba Olusegun Obasanjo, Pa E.A. Adeboye, Mr Fola Adeola and Alhaji Abdulsamad Rabiu, in response to the plea for intervention from private individuals, corporate organisations and religious bodies.

Former President, Chief  Obasanjo and Mr Fola Adeola, founder, Fate Foundation, both donated their property in Abeokuta as isolation centres. The General Overseer, Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pa Adeboye donated medical equipment, including ICU beds and ventilators. While my friend and brother, Alhaji Rabiu, who is the Chairman of BUA donated 100 million Naira and pledged medical equipment and supplies to the State COVID-19 Pandemic Support Fund.

I want to personally assure the entire citizenry of Ogun State that I will ensure the judicious use of these donations of funds and property towards the containment of the COVID-19 pandemic.
We are hopeful that, as these appreciated donations contribute significantly to the fight against COVID-19, other well-meaning Nigerians would follow their lead and noble example.

This pandemic poses a collective challenge and together, we must join hands in fighting it.

We will confront it. We will slow it down. We will defeat it.
