Zulum added, “The people of Borno deeply appreciate this show of humanity by a 96-year-old to visit us. Let me say it, Our Baba had donated the sum of ₦1.5 billion to support the flood victims. May Allah bless and reward you with Aljannah. Mu gode, Baba.”
This generous donation and Dantata’s visit have provided significant relief and moral support to the flood-affected community.
