By Uche Nworah (ABS)
The Senator that represented Anambra Central in the 8th Senate, and former national Chairman of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Senator Sir Victor Umeh has donated the sum of two million naira to Anambra state government to help its fight against the spread of coronavirus in the state.
According to Senator Umeh, “We have seen what is happening all over the world with the coronavirus pandemic. Most nations are struggling to cope with the devastating effects of the pandemic on families and on the economy. Our Governor, His Excellency, Chief Willie Obiano has shown commitment in his resolve to protect Ndi Anambra”.
Senator Umeh commended the Governor for introducing an economic stimulus package to cushion the effects of the pandemic on Ndi Anambra, and providing vital medical equipment for the isolation centres. “The government can not do this alone. That’s why we have to donate money or even materials as this concerns all of us”, he said.
Continuing, Senator Umeh called on Ndi Anambra as well as corporate organisations operating in the state to support the government’s efforts, “We can see that Lagos state, despite their privileged status as an economic powerhouse in Nigeria, are calling for and are receiving huge support by way of monetary and material contributions from individuals and corporate organisations to help their COVID-19 response efforts. This is commendable and i believe Ndi Anambra will listen and support the state government’s COVID-19 efforts’, Senator Umeh concluded.
