Due to the lockdown in the local Government I stay as a result of the obvious pandemic affecting both poor and rich, young and aged, some well-meaning youths in my community inclusive of myself and a group of some students' association members thought it good to raise funds from members of the community home and abroad to buy food items majorly Garri and Beans to feed the vulnerables amidst us lest they start dying because of hunger.

As at yesterday, 12th April, to the glory of God, we had raised approximately 1.7m, we bless all our amazing donors who decided to support the initiative with their resources, we started the journey on Monday and ended it yesterday.

We sought the approval of the DPO to tell his boys to allow us move about at road blocks, we also got approval from the King, Olu of Olode and his chiefs and Baale.

We were able to reach out to more than 27 quaters and gave food items worth close to 1600 naira to more than 1500 aged ones and vulnerables.

I am bringing this here to inspire those who have money and wouldn't think of helping those who are in need, people are really suffering and we shouldn't wait for the Government at all times, whenever we need to take the bull by the horn, don't let us hesitate. Whatever labour of love we engage in to make people happy, our reward is going to be in multiple folds.

I don't know the right section to post this but I am trusting admins to do the needful.

God bless you my brother. Men like you and you cleagues in this noble effort are rear to find. Your good deeds in mind and action will bring you more success insha allah. Big ups

DonX001:
Are they sure they are actually the robbers?
Cos I don't trust Nigerian police.
They could have simply caught anybody walking around that area and packed them in a van, and come and parade them as the armed robbers.
That's their usual way of catching "armed robbers".

Was the instructions not to stay at home. Why roam about the street if you are not a criminal without ID card to prove where you are going

Igbos in Yorubaland still have a home town in ignore land, they didn't migrate totally,
Do you know how many ethnic groups that's in Delta? They are many, itsekiri, ijaw, etc, including Igbos, but because we know igbos mainly reside in SE not SS, the smaller faction in SS now chose to be called the BENDEL IGBOS, later on they changed it to DELTA IGBOS and of course they all know their roots and want to maintain that statues, reason they don't bear ADAMU, or EKONG or EFIONG, or ADEBAYO.......they answer IGBO names, IGBO surnames, IGBO titles, Same tradition, Same language and same way of life.....so wtf are you saying? What else defines a person's origin if not culture?

Hey you know what you are actually right. I really don't have any business challenging you on this because it's not my tribe or culture and that's the honest truth. My argument however is He who chooses not to identify with Igbo tradition or identity should not be forced to do so. Being from Anochia does not automatically make me answerable like a slave to Igbos or it's tradition.

uruba23:
lol you make it look like people with data don't deserve pallative now i see people in car in your own America queing up.

Very true. But the ones distrbuting the food are not the government nor were they sponsored by the government. They are private individuals (wellfare org, churches, mosques, companies doing CSR etc). Note that I mentioned churches. Theres one church in USA doing wonders in noble deeds that is not even half as rich as Redeem or Winners here in Nigeria yet our own cannot duplicate such nobel effort even if na to focus on thier members alone is still something that will go a long way. I will also not leave us muslims out of this blame. We are equally guilty

itsme01:




Same US issuing out bans to everyone including our hardworking professionals now posted on their embassy website for Nigeria Doctors to apply

Chinese gave Nigerians 15 highly trained Doctors for free, cargo Plane load of face mask, 50 ventilators drugs, and reliefs packages, US and Trump extracted their people from Nigeria, banned Nigerians legitimate immigrant , almost ruined Airpeace's Allen Onyeama and now they want our Doctors, pouching and toasting them

What was US response during Africa and Nigeria's Ebola crisis? they refused giving us an experimental drug.. When Boko haram killed hundreds daily what did US do? they refuse weapon sales to Jonathan because we rejected Gay and Lesbianism.

PayPal and Ebay refused registering Hard working Nigerians, Now Alibaba and AliExpress from China registers us and many youth can now trade and do mini importation without being termed Yahoo, infact if not for chinko phones many wont access internet yet they want to use propaganda to make us reject 5G network

Now they are calling our Doctors to their early deaths, since their racist ones wont work, luring us back to deadly slavery

.

Guy.... Your brain is Supercharged with intelligence. Big ups

Yanmiriflathead:
As A Bonafide Israeli Man Of Igbo Descent, I Believe It Is Better To Travel Out Of This Worthless Contraption Called Nigeria Than To Continue To Suffer And Die In This Country. We Igbos Are Not Nigerians And Can Never Be Nigerians Till Thy Kingdom Kom

Please you are most obliged. Vamoose. You certainly won't be missed.

Your colleagues from South Africa said worse but you can hear them singing the home song when they where repatriated back as refugees.

Brain no dey your heads

uruba23:
This is Florida.... Do you think they need pallatives...

You can travel to Florida for all I care. So long as you are in Nigeria, the FGs directives are clear on who should benefit

Elvis778:
You are just a confused human being, the origin of Delta igbos is not disputable, period.

Lol. Have you heard of
Yoruba edo
Hausa yoruba
These ethnic groups dont have complex problems and are not looking for how to expand by claiming bullshit. But the Igbos ehn.... Full of vices
Maybe we should change all igbos in SW to Yoruba igbo since the yorubas have colonised them too

linnyx:
My guy forget these things you are typing here o. Most of these people and organisations you are listing here have their stories to tell. The churches and mosques you are quoting here provide their own electricity, security, water, all the basic necessities they provide for themselves so please cut them some slack.

The entertainment people you are mentioning here what encouragements have they gotten? Many of them had to go through hell to get to where they are today now you want them to be doing charity for who?

No social insurance, the ones they say they are sharing who are they sharing it to? Boys in Ogun and Lagos are busy disturbing the whole place because they are hungry and you are here trying to justice what I don't know.

Guy... Make I just respect you and myself

You have no made any sense at all. Im telling you exactly how its done in USA. There it has no government intervention. Its purely love for one another.

Who fvking cares about thier stories. Who fvking cares if they generate thier power. Why are they in existence in the first place. Is it to help themselves or to help the vulnerable.
What the heck were you even ranting up there. Were you thinking at all. A church ran through the NGO label is not ready to help because they have a story. Then the organisation label shouls be changed so that then can be heavily taxed.

So you would rather pitch your tent with blaming the government which is always the most convenient move for bitches like you who don't have much brain power.

You are obviously a dark minded soul who wont do well in governance more than the people you blame in government

linnyx:
That is how it is done. Here in Naija... Make I no talk

Those People you see volunteering Al from personal donations from private individuals and muslim churches it is not government sponsored.

If Nigerian churches, mosque and all those entertainment idiots that call themselves billionaires online can come together to perform this Noble act it will go a long way.

But as usual, they always fail the acid test

Duru9:


Which kind wahala be this


I don already buy sniper keep sha

If there's no movement on Monday I won't have any choice than to ease this whole stress I don really suffer this life

Please make sure you leave a note that it was not Covid19 that killed you oh...make them no go add you to the number of deaths in NCDC website

uruba23:
I am sure your listened to Powell on thursday when he said the U.S treasury is considering intervening whenever neccessary and they are seeking legislative approvals.By the way i don't remember mentioning a specific country...your goal is simply to irritate and annoy me..you talk about corruption, i simply asked people who had recieve F.G pallative to come forth and press the like button but you twist it by saying if you have data you should be excluded more like saying if you have air.I have read close to five books in the last three days my mental well being is more important to me and i got the books using data.So my friend please organize your thought stop derailing.

Nobody is derailing. You don't ask Eskimos if they have ice do you?

FGs plan is for the Vulnerable and the poor.
And you are here asking jamb question for people who have data to read and respond to your post. If they say they haven't received it the question is are they in the expected list of recipients? Obviously not so why ask such a malicious questions in the wrong gathering of unqualified people.
Are you just looking for how to wail endlessly?

stormborn28:
you are very myopic... So google has become a news outlets... I never knew I was chatting with an illiterate... Google is simply a collection of all information around the world... I can't believe this.. Nonsense zombies and useless government

This is the beauty of Nairaland. It gives ignorant illiterates a voice when they are meant to be meek and learn.

This one still dey learn. Lazy youth. No fear Google oh.. you hear. It will help your ass cause you type and sound really lost in academic awareness

stormborn28:
shifting post in what way... I brought you a news with a verifiable source (Channels) ..yoy are still asking for proof. You must be a dummy

Learn boy. Was it FG being interviewed? Or a pained fellow.

I asked you to give me proof where FG ascerted what you alleged and you completely went south. Please you are wasting my time if you can not follow simple instructions

legitnow:
Return where?


Here no light.


Nepa take us dey learn work.

Speak for yourself..Na me say make you dey live for slum. You fit pay Nepa bills?

stormborn28:
you must be a close associate of the finance minister.. So I'm not surprise... Lie Muhammad laid the foundation and here we are

See him shifting goal post..... Typical.

stormborn28:
look at you... Tell me what credible source is and give examples

My brother.... Google is your friend.
Dont dignify Buhari by being a lazy youth

uruba23:
You are just an idiot ignoramus who told i need F.G money,it is their duty to show they are reponsible to their citizen.You think countries paying $1000 to their citizen only give to those that don't have data.May be you don't understand the ripple effect.By the way i am one of
those who asked the F.G to ensure the vunerable get supplied with pallatives.I thought i could correct your docile mind feel with assumptions ,but obviously you are leaving in fools paradise,let me leave Sango to rest because the next time you address me that way thunder would strike you.Big fool

Well newsflash I am an American citizen by naturalization (But i would rather live and work here in Nigeria... Much better for me cuz I love home). I neva see anything for my account for TD Bank in USA.
My entire extended family lives and work in USA. They haven't confirmed such free cash to me yet.
Moral of this jist: Dont just sit in your flat talking trash because you read it on the internet. So because its US it must go smothly. Well newsflash for you. So you thing the $8billion earmarked by trum would be spent judiciously? I wont be surprised if Trump gives the money to his rich freinds who will benefit from the profits of managing the covid19 pandemic. The government is more currupt than that of Nigeria up to the point of turning it to a career. Talk of having a career as a Lobbyist.... You can only get that in US. If a Nigerian does that in his country he will be called a currupt person. What is bad is bad. But never call one white-bad while you call the other black-bad

What are you sending to me now. Is this proof or some angry person complaining.

Where did FG come out to make such asertions in your allegation

Please its obvious that you dont have any proof of your allegations other than some folks who have been prevented from benefiting illegally from the money complaining up and down

StarUp:
One of two things will later happen:

1. He will struggle to sell the house when he eventually gets broke (as they always do).

2. He will leave behind liability for others to maintain in the coming years due to shame of selling off the house.

Both hope you are assertions are very very valid.

in fact some people are really waiting for him to get Broke so he can sell it for dirt cheap

[quote author=stormborn28 post=88304118][/quote]When I say show me proof I mean show me proof from a credible source..... not from this trashy website. I hope you understand what credible proof means

Elvis778:
Your confused bro, giving me a link that's actually against your point of view? Well, who won't be confused? with the way this government is frustrating the citizens, most of the citizens are bound to be confused,
frustration can cause lots of things u know, including confusion.

It appears that you are referring to yourself. An Igbo man looking to take over tribes in Delta and Rivers. You for kukuma take over Benue(Otukpo) too.
Maybe you can also venture into taking tribes in Kano or Maiduguri.... Lol talk of Kano Igbo, Maiduguri Igbo. Loooool.
But you already have
UK Igbo,
Italian and Spanish Igbo,
Asian Igbo,
Arab Igbo,
American Igbo,
Canadian Igbo,
Australian Igbo,
Russian Igbo

The inferiority complex and confusion no go kill person

uruba23:
Chief it is about priority, for some of us data is life,it save us a lot of cost including the cost of replying you.Biko your assumptions are very wrong.

So why do you need a refund from FG for you stupidity. Mr data is life.
My point is clear you are not in the category of the "Vulnerable" and "Poor". Those people cannot afford to buy data let alone make data thier life option

GamalNasser:
I voted Buhari in 2015 in 2019i voted Atiku and Buhari rigged

Tales of a serial looser

stormborn28:
take a look at this



Is it not ridiculous that a government that cannot distribute voters card for three years now said it has distributed billions of naira to Nigerians in one week? These people are rogues.”

Please show me proof of this allegation. Don't just echo what every ingnorant person spews

SIRAO:
not everyone in igbo land hate buhari, i am an igbo man from isiala ngwa, in Abia state and one of buhari admirers , and through him, God has done a lot in our family since he assumed leadership. Honestly, my family have no connection in government but we have been uplifted under his government. Pls my fellow lgbos , show love to him for he has done well for us expecially in the area of nfrastructures. If you keep wishing Nigeria bad,m Then you 're buy bad luck to yourself.

God bless you my brother. You will receive more success even after Buharis tenure.
the success of the country is a collective one by each and every one of us

tophumble:
This is actually a good step, but I think our leaders can do more.

Churches that are donating money to FG shd stop it and start using such to help their members

They are not donating nor transferring any money. It's a pledge that will be redeemed when the need arises.

It's so easy to pledge

uruba23:
Opinion poll if you recieve F.G 20k just like if not share so that people that recieve can come and like....please no .
rigging o.

if you are on Nairaland then you have data.

If you have data then you do not fall in the category of the people considered by the Federal government of Nigeria.

fulaniHERDSman:
Amen!

Let those useless things who has abhorrence for Truth and affinity for wickedness come and start attacking their grand father.

She na dat tout dey claim 92.

Hisroyalbadmeat:
The president that never was!!!, The red Cap cheif in aso rock will be furious and will not follow advice, The wandering president will keep on wondering, what fvckry,

Please stop supporting Osinbanjo. You are already setting him up to fail.

Elvis778:
There is something official, I have in-laws from there, i have a friend/classmate from there so I will speak cuz I do have contact with them from time to time, so quite this crap, your not even igbo, how on Earth are you gonna know who's related to igbos and who's not? It's even obvious, but ur trying to deny it, what else do you use in identifying the origin of someone? First is name, language and culture and so far it's all Igbo related so what's wrong with you?
If you say they ain't Igbos, your simply saying they don't have a tribe in Nigeria, which is an insult.......they will cut ur head if you say that in their presence.

You don't want the whites to colonize you but you want to colonize others. Did they tell you they want to be colonized? They already have thier tribe. So you want to wipe that tribes presence away abi. Colonial master well done oh. Attache by force..... .
