President Bola Tinubu announced a disaster relief fund Monday in Maiduguri, Borno State, to assist Nigerian citizens impacted by floods and other disasters.
A Statement by Bayo Onanuga Special Adviser to the President (Information & Strategy) said the relief fund is already expedient as the climate becomes more unpredictable and many places in the country are vulnerable to its vagaries.
President Tinubu announced this at the Borno Government House when he visited the state to sympathise with the government and people over the recent flooding from Alau Dam.
He urged the private sector to contribute to the fund.
