ECOWAS President, Mr Kadré Désiré Ouedraogo, who made the donation on behalf of the commission noted that the donation is in line with ECOWAS mandate to support and show solidarity with people of the sub-region who are going through a disaster.

According to him ECOWAS is the only sub-regional body with a comprehensive Disaster Risk Response strategy and the gesture is an expression of solidarity and goodwill from the rest of the people of the sub-region.

Receiving the donation on behalf of the Nigerian government the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Gbenga Ashiru said the gesture is a demonstration that members of the West African states are their brothers’ keepers.

He added that the donation will go a long way in helping to care for those that have been affected.

With this venture, more funds are pouring in for the flood victims following the raising of N12 billion by the Presidential Committee on Flood Relief co-chaired by business mogul, Aliko Dangote and Olisa Agbakoba.

Minion: My King! ECOWAS has donated to the flood victims of Nigeria
Hades: Was the money distributed to individually each victim by ECOWAS
Minion: Ummm..... No My Lord! They gave it to the Federal Government
Hades: Come! Look!! The Cabal is growing fat already
Minion:

that is a good one from ECOWAS. But with the high level of corruption in this country, you just can help but wonder if the money will get to the victim.
ECOWAS has just make someone a biilionaire. WEEP for this contry. there is an adage in yoruba that says ' ti teni kan o ba baje, teni kan o ni da '

Garri_Activist: comot here jooor ?

STAY HERE JOO

What are we doing collecting less than half a million dollars from ECOWAS, when we have resources to deal with the floods?

This is why we are no longer respected as the giant / leader of Africa. Why we no longer have influence in Africa talk less of the world.

Are we now positioning ourselves as receiver of aid from ECOWAS?

This is like a very rich billionaire business man collecting his share of church donations handed out to the poor and destitute in his village.

And we wonder why we have no respect within Africa like we had in during the days of Buhari and Abacha?

Do you realise that there are probably dozens of politicians in our corrupt system with enough looted money to single handedly deal with the flood emergency?

Obasanjo by himself has looted close to $200billion .

Must we continue to degrade and humiliate ourselves on a daily basis

Only peanuts will get to the flood victims...
