The Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election, Peter Obi has donated N50 million to flood victims of Borno state.

Obi made this donation when he visited Borno state to condole with the state government over the devastating flood disaster.

He said the donation is to boost the support funds targeted at helping residents mitigate the challenges occasioned by the devastating flood.

Obi was accompanied by the National Chairman of the Party’s caretaker, Senator Nenadi Usman.

Others on the trip are the Labour Party Vice Presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmad, the National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement, Dr Yunusa Tanko and other leaders of the party.

According to a statement signed by the Spokesman, Peter Obi Media Reach (POMR), Ibrahim Umar,
the team made an initial donation of N50 million to the emergency relief fund of the Borno state government.

They also visited the state governor, Babagana Zulum, His Highness the Shehu of Borno, Abubakar Ibn Umar Garba Al Amin El-Kanemi in the condolence mission.

According to Umar, the Labour Party team also visited the Bank of the North spare parts market, where traders had recorded loss of their goods, and the IDP camp in Government College.

The statement said that they also visited a woman who tragically lost her newborn twins to the flood and condole with her.

The LP team told Borno people that the Labour Party is committed to supporting those affected by the devastating floods in Borno State.

The statement read, “We will continue to stand with the people of Borno, providing aid and resources to help them rebuild and recover from this tragedy.

“As the people of Borno navigate this challenging time, we want them to know they are not alone. We are dedicated to helping alleviate the suffering and hardship caused by the floods, which have submerged over half of Maiduguri and displaced thousands of residents.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with the affected families, and we will do everything in our power to support them.

“I thank the various levels of government, especially the Borno State government, for their interventions and support for the affected people.

“As we reflect on the immense loss and the daunting journey of recovery, may God Almighty grant eternal rest to those who lost their lives, replenish the losses of those who lost their goods, and grant quick healing to those still in the hospital. Above all, may God Almighty continue to bless Borno State and Nigeria.”
