Jaiz Bank, Nigeria’s premier non-interest bank, has donated at least N110 million to support victims of the recent flood disaster that wreaked havoc on Maiduguri and its environs in Borno State.
Jaiz Bank board chairman Mohammed Mustapha Bintube, who led the bank’s board team to Maiduguri, Borno State, donated N100 million (N50m in cash and N50m in kind) to the flood victims through the state governor, Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum, at the Government House.
He said: “We have seen what has happened, we have heard it, and we feel it. So, we have made a modest contribution to the tune of 100 million naira”.
Bintube further informed the governor that Jaiz Bank staff had also volunteered to give some part of their September salary to support the flood victims.
Receiving the donation on behalf of the victims, Governor Zulum lauded the Jaiz Bank team, saying the gesture was meant to show compassion and love for the people of Borno State.
In the same vein, the Jaiz Bank Board team proceeded to the palace of the Shehu of Borno, Alhaji Abubakar Ibn Umar Garba Al Amin El-Kanemi, and donated N10 million.
