Nigeria’s sensational businessman, Femi Otedola has appealed to those who are yet to redeem their pledges to the COVID-19 relief fund.
The pledges were made by rich Nigerians and businesses after Nigeria confirmed its first case of COVID-19 in a bid to help government fight the pandemic.
After the pledges were made, Central Bank of Nigeria set up an account under the Private Sector Coalition Against COVID -19.
Otedola took to his Instagram page to post a list of Nigerians who have not fulfilled their pledges and asked them to redeem their pledges as the number of cases rise in Nigeria.
Otedola wrote: “Not yet redeemed! Let our word be our bond, and redeem pledges to the Coalition Against Covid-19. The Central Bank of Nigeria at the close of business on Friday, April 3, 2020, listed a few donors yet to redeem their pledges.
“I encourage them to fast-track this intervention to save lives during this pandemic. Every life counts.
“Matching words with action is the hallmark of Integrity, hence my fufillment of my 1Billion Naira Donation which has been published above by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
“My word is my bond and this has always been the bedrock on which my life is based. I salute the other contributors listed above who have honoured their pledge and call on those who are yet to fulfill their own pledges to this noble cause that will undoubtedly save lives.
