BUA has today, redeemed its pledge of N1billion to the fight against COVID-19 in Nigeria by way of a confirmed funds transfer to the COVID-19 relief fund account with the Central Bank of Nigeria. In addition, the company also announced another donation of N300million to Sokoto, Edo and Ogun States to assist in galvanizing a coordinated response and adequate preparedness in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic in these states.

The donations to Sokoto and Edo States were on behalf of its Cement subsidiary, BUA Cement which has its major operations in those states whilst Ogun was also selected as a beneficiary due to its proximity to Lagos which had been the epicentre of the virus in Nigeria.

This development comes exactly a day after the Chairman of the Group, Abdul Samad Rabiu, announced a cash donation of N1billion to Nigeria’s response to the virus and also, another donation to 9 states of medical and emergency kits and supplies including face masks, testing kits, safety goggles, gloves, personal protective gear – which have already been ordered and should be delivered soon.

In his comments on the additional donation of N300million to Edo, Sokoto and Ogun States, Abdul Samad Rabiu, Chairman of BUA Group said that although these states have been identified for this intervention in the first instance, “BUA is monitoring the situation closely and is also looking at other states that may need additional help. We will continue engaging with these states and relevant partners including the NCDC in the areas where they need support to win this fight against COVID-19.”, Rabiu added.

Rabiu also urged other well-meaning Nigerians – individuals and corporates alike, to join hands in supporting the efforts to put the virus in check in Nigeria, financially and otherwise. “Our country needs us now more than ever. This is the time to come together and support.”

A country that pays her healthcare workers N5,000 as hazard allowance and pays lawmakers N1.2million as newspaper allowance will soon learn the bitter consequences of deliberate stupidity

Nice one. But it would have made more sense if those doing the donations buy medical equipments/facilities and donate like Dr Paul Enenche of Dunamis church, Daddy G.O and that Chinese man did, cos we all know that those at the top must embezzle part of the fund raised by good and concerned Nigerians.

And the rest of these guys always flaunting their riches... We are waiting for them to come splash money now. This is when it matters. They have been hiding and gone off social media since this problem began.

Why is the rich the ones donating huge amounts of money now?

Is this part of the whole Plan?

Bill gates just resigned Microsoft to focus on his "Humanitarian" work. Why?

Are we just playing into thier hands?

The Virus started in a Market. Why?

Why did it start in China and the reason they were able to curtail it is bacause they had more control over thier People?

It is now reasonable for the Government to issue a sit-at-home order. Why?

Was Ebola a test case?

Why is it that the vulnurable are the older Generation?

The Nigerian Government says the Military will be used and are currently being prepped.

Random Dude: Hello 911, My Neighbour is coughing.

911: We will be there in some minutes to take for isolation(Onikan Stadium)

As Trump says.... We are fighthing an unknown Enemy.

The Machine.

The Funny thing is that People seem not to be able to connect the dots.

We all seem to ride along with the tide.

The summary of it all, IF YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN, IT'S TIME TO BE MORE VIGILANT.

May He meet us all prepared. Amen.
