PoliticsMMM Donates N5m Worth Of Materials To Idps by DifferentBoy1(op): 10:02pm On Nov 19, 2016
– MMM-Nigeria continues to gain grounds despite the announcement that the scheme is fraudulent

– The group recently celebrated one year since its invasion of Nigerian market

– The scheme also donated N5million worth of relief materials to IDPs in Abuja, Nigeria’s federal capital territory



Controversial money doubling scheme, ‘MMM-Nigeria’ has donated relief materials totally about N5 million to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) camp in Abuja, Nigeria’s federal capital territory.

This philanthropic gesture by the community of mutual financial aid and donations, is part of their humanitarian week which they tagged ‘MMM cares’ as they mark their first anniversary in Nigeria.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the camps identified for the gesture include those in Gwoza and Bama in Durumi area and the New Kuchingoro.

Reports say the items donated include bags of beans, garri, rice, cartons of beverages and noodles, clothing, drugs, and educational materials to the pupils among them.

Speaking on the gesture by the group, Seyo Bello, identified as a Guilder, explained that they were moved by their desire to positively affect the society as well as those without anyone to help.

“We are marking our first year anniversary and we have decided to come and celebrate it with our brothers, mothers and children in the camp.

“As a community, we do not only provide help to our members, we also extend that to the larger society as part of our social responsibility.

“In these times of economic challenges, the IDPs are the ones that need help and support more than any other person; that is why we visited them today,” Bello was quoted to have said.

On how they could raise items that worth such a huge amount, Mr Bello explained: “The N5 million was raised from voluntary donations my members in the FCT.

“That is what defines us as a community of people providing financial help to each other on the principle of reciprocity and benevolence.

“In MMM there are no lenders and no debtors. One participant asks for help, another one helps.’”

“They are our brothers and sisters who have left the comfort of their homes and are now struggling for survival here.

“No matter how little, let us always extend a hand of help to them to complement what government and other donors are doing.”

Popular Nigerian singer, Iyanya was also recently spotted at the one-year anniversary celebration of the scheme in Port Harcourt, the Rivers state capital.

The singer was seen clad in an MMM-inscribed t-shirt with a pair of short to match. According to Facebook user who shared the picture, the singer was live at the one year anniversary celebration of MMM Nigeria in the state.

The event which was attended by participants and many others, also got the attention of other prominent Nigerians.

The woman with the longest nails ever (at over 28ft long) is Lee Redmond but she lost them to a car accident in 2009.

She says it takes her about a week to paint them as each fingernail is between 26-26.5 inches long.

A useful way to gauge how healthy and nutritious your eggs are is to tale a look at the colour of the yolk. Evidently, the darker the colour, the happier the chicken that laid it was and the better quality its feed. This means the eggs will be of good quality.

Scientists discovered that the colour of an egg yolk is determined by something called carotenoids. The higher level of carotenoids the egg has, the more orange the yolk is.
