Hw wrote, “This morning, I transferred N2million to my Yobe State Youth Leader – Hon Babaginda Adamu Jajere, for onward distribution to the people of Jimbam community, in fulfilment of my pledge during my visit, in the name of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Senator Kashim Shettima, Gov Mai Mala Buni, Senator Adamu Abdullahi and Hon Minister of Power, Engr Abubakar D Aliyu – true Yobe son.
“This issue is personal to me, because until last September, I lived in a community that was affected by the release of Oyan Dam during rainy season. My family and I had to leave our residence every year for up to five months to stay with relatives due to the flooding of our area.
“I know what it feels, I have been there. I pray that God will grant succour to all other communities across Nigeria going through this flood. Amen.”
