In a demonstration of corporate empathy and social responsibility, Jaiz Bank has donated N100 million to assist flood victims in Borno State. The Chairman of the bank’s board, Alhaji Mohammed Mustapha Bintube, led a delegation to the state capital, Maiduguri, to present the donation to Governor Babagana Umara Zulum at the Government House. This significant contribution is intended to help alleviate the suffering of those affected by the recent floods that have caused widespread devastation in the region.
The donation is structured to provide immediate relief, with N50 million in cash and another N50 million allocated for relief materials. Alhaji Bintube, while presenting the funds, expressed the bank’s deep concern for the victims of the disaster, stating, “We have seen what has happened. We have heard it, and we feel it. So, we have come with a modest contribution to the tune of N100 million.”
This gesture from Jaiz Bank comes at a crucial time, as thousands of residents in Borno State have been displaced by the floods, with many losing their homes and livelihoods. The bank’s contribution will be instrumental in supporting the state government’s ongoing efforts to provide emergency aid, shelter, and other essential services to the affected communities.
The bank’s swift response to the crisis underscores the importance of corporate institutions stepping up in times of need, showcasing that corporate social responsibility extends beyond business operations. Jaiz Bank’s intervention not only provides immediate relief but also sets an example for other organizations to join in supporting vulnerable communities during natural disasters.
Governor Zulum, in response to the donation, expressed his gratitude to Jaiz Bank, noting that the funds and materials would go a long way in easing the burden of those impacted by the floods and rebuilding affected areas.
I dont understand why Jaiz Bank is getting praised for only donating N100 million. They could have given more. #JustSaying 🤷♀️
I dont think Jaiz Banks donation is genuine. They could be doing it for publicity. What do you guys think?
I believe any form of donation, regardless of motive, can still make a positive impact.
This is great and all, but shouldnt the bank focus on improving their services instead of making donations?
I dont get why Jaiz Bank only donated N100 million. They could have given more considering the scale of the disaster.
I think Jaiz Banks donation is just a PR stunt. They could do more to help the flood victims.
I dont understand why Jaiz Bank only donated N100 million. They could afford more to help the flood victims.
Wow, donating money is great and all, but shouldnt we be focusing on preventing floods in the first place? Just saying.
Donating now helps those affected. Prevention is important, but lets not neglect immediate support.
I think Jaiz Bank should have donated more money to the flood victims in Borno State. N100 million seems like a small amount.
I dont think Jaiz Bank should have donated that much money. They have their own profits to worry about.
