The richest man in Africa, Nigeria's Aliko Dangote has donated N200 million to victims of flood in Nigeria's Kogi state. The donation is made of N50 million food items and N150 million cash, a total of $1,250,000.
The donation is only a part of the assistance Dangote planned to offer the people of the state. In addition, he planned to empower 1,000 women in each of the 21 local councils in the state, for which he has set aside another N230 million.
Each woman, will collect a grant of N10,000, about $65 to start petty business. Dangote said he planned to empower 21,000 women in Kogi by giving them N10, 000 each to enable them start petty businesses.
He said the beneficiaries should be selected on the basis of 1, 000 women per local government, saying he had set aside N230 million for the scheme expected to take off in the next one month.

Fake news ...24 boko haram killed fake news ..no news from north is real...all false cooked propaganda.......Poster post the latest gist on line about Biafra genocide ... The only stupid unreasonable point i see from the North was - how could Ndi Igbo spear their's in a revolution of killing corrupt selfish leaders which i emerging-ed that we Ndi Igbo starting from Zik-Mbakwe where less to blame in terms of corruption,we build we don't destroy..Biafra is blameless and justified !!!A saying goes that whenever a relationship started in favor of someone misfortune or oppression the said parties can never hold ! Columbus is never celebrated because he is an Invader !

I Biafra last expected this trash and jargon compiled in summary of ****of the sense Awolowo and the selfish role he played for power,he knew quit well that if the Igbo's goes down that the Yoruba's will be at advantage to claim their access..God punish Awo and his tribe likes. All the lies and cover up to silent the killing of Igbo race on media and elsewhere shall bear the full course and the blood of 3-4 million till date Igbo massacre and slaughtering will fall on your head in one way or the other,The lord of host will sure command the spirit of vengeance to destroy you demons,Judas hanged himself after he betrayed Jesus, like wise miserable death will follow all the like mind of Biafra genocide,you think you are wise and clever abi ? ask judas how he met his end !!! Yorubas by nature are hypocrite and opportunist smelling dirty bastards..where is Nigeria and yoruba's today ?
