Chief Dr Chidi Anyaegbu MFR, Chairman and CEO of Chisco Group has donated the sum of N10, 000, 000.00 (Ten million Naira) to the Anambra State Government to support the fight against Coronavirus.

The donation was made today, April 6, 2020 at the conference hall of the office of the Secretary to the Anambra State Government, Prof. Solo Chukwulobelu.

Represented by the eastern zonal coordinator, Chisco Group, Hon Uche Ochuba, Chief Anyaegbu commended the efforts of the Governor of Anambra State, Chief Sir Willie Obiano and the State Covid-19 Action Committee in preventing the spread of the virus in Anambra State and the preparations to contain it should any case arise.

Chief Anyaegbu emphasized the need for Ndi Anambra to rally round the government and assist by donating cash to the designated account announced by government or submit medical or relief materials to the office of the Secretary to the State Government.

He urged the wealthy to make meaningful sacrifices, aimed at assisting the poor, the needy and the masses.

"I am calling on everyone who can help in one form or another to support government in this fight. The Covid-19 pandemic is not a disease to play politics with. We should eschew political sentiments, alignments and come together as one to fight this life-threatening disease.

"We have a collective responsibility to support government, in this case, the Anambra State Government, to protect our people against the deadly pandemic. This is the time for us to come together as one to bring succour to our people".

"I wish to state that my focus is to save lives. Through the Chisco foundation, relief materials like hundreds of bags of rice have been donated to our people in Lagos and at home. We are also distributing face masks and sanitizers to curb the spread of the virus".

In a brief speech, President General of Amichi Development Union, Chief Dan Ugwumba, lauded the state government for taking proactive measures in the battle against Coronavirus. He also eulogised Chief Anyaegbu for being a worthy ambassador of his community, Amichi. He said that Chief Anyaegbu has always helped the poor.

"Through the Chisco Foundation, Chief Anyaegbu has been bringing a team of foreign and local medical professionals to offer free medical services to his people. The Chisco Medical Mission has been on for the past six years. The foundation is also on the verge of completing and equipping a modern hospital at Umudim, Amichi, to host the medical mission and offer free medical services to the people afterwards. I encourage the privileged to emulate Chief Anyaegbu's philanthropic gestures".

Recieving the donation on behalf of the Governor of Anambra State, Secretary to the State Government, Prof Solo Chukwulobelu thanked Chief Anyaegbu for responding to the call of the state government.

"Your response to this call is both timely and exemplary. We appreciate your kind gesture and support to the government and people of Anambra state in this time of need. We also thank all individuals and organizations who have contributed to the fight against Coronavirus. Indeed, it is a time to come together as one, to protect our people and fight this pandemic".
