over N50million cheques to the governors of Yobe,
Adamawa and Borno state as part of the Lagos state
government's support towards the rebuilding of their
states after the various Boko Haram attacks. Ambode
made the donation at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, at a
press conference he addressed in company of the Govs
of Adamawa, Senator Bindo Jibrilla; Borno, Alhaji
Kashim Shettima; and Yobe, Alhaji Ibrahim Geidam.
He commiserated with the state governments as well as
the families of those who either lost their loved ones or
have been displaced from their homes. Responding on
behalf of the states, Governor of Borno State, Kashim
Shettima thanked Ambode for the gesture and promised
to channel the money to people of the state who are in
dire need of it.
