While Senator Dickson donated over N15 million, his friends raised N11 million to support the flood victims under the platform of Friends of Senator Dickson.

Senator Dickson, who conveyed his appreciation to the donors most of whom preferred to be anonymous, also expressed the gratitude of the beneficiaries. He reiterated his appeal to public spirited individuals, NGOs and corporations to come to the rescue of displaced and suffering flood victims.

Dickson said in a statement yesterday that he appreciated the effort of his friends who came together to start this humanitarian drive.

Dickson also reiterated the policy of the foundation to record and publish the list of all donors as well as the beneficiaries for purposes of transparency.
