Presenting the items to the beneficiaries, the FIRS team lead, Benedicta Akpana who said she was representing the office of the Technical Assistant to Chairman, explained that the service is sympathetic to victims of the disaster therefore decided to reach out to show them to show love.

She noted that “on behalf of the Chairman of the FIRS, Dr. Zach Adedeji, I want to extend our heartfelt sympathy to the government and people of Borno State for the flood disaster. Originally, we had planned to come earlier but we delayed due to the busy nature of our job.

The flood disaster has caused significant damage, displacing many families and destroying properties. As we went round to select and encourage the beneficiaries, we saw for ourselves, first hand the devastating impact this has had on the people. We know the state government and other well meaning individuals and organizations are working hard to provide aid for the victims, the FIRS also deemed it fit to support their efforts”.

Akpanka who thanked the Chairman of FIRS, Dr. Adedeji added that “this couldn’t have been made possible without the support of the Chairman. Just last week, we were in south west to train and empower youths in poultry farming and today, we are here. We’re grateful that we now have a Chairman that cares for the people. This initiative aligns with the Renewed Hope agenda for the President.”

Speaking on behalf of the BROJ foundation, Nollywood Actor and film maker, Dr. Uzee Usman said that the foundation was grateful for the opportunity to partner with FIRS to reach out to the vulnerable.

He said that “the disaster was unfortunate but we are here to give our brothers and sisters who were affected hope. We may not have too much but we believe that the little we’ve presented will go a long way to affect the beneficiaries positively. I advise them to use the items judiciously and pray for the organization that has donated to them”.

Reacting on behalf of the beneficiaries, Usman Mohammed said that “we are profoundly grateful for this generous gesture from FIRS through the BROJ foundation. This donation came at the right time. We thank the President, Chairman of FIRS and the team that came to execute this. We appeal to well meaning people out there to also support us because we are suffering”
