A Support Group for Nigerian Orphans (SGNO) based in Taraba state has urged music superstar, Davido to consider the plight of northern orphans when disbursing the N250 million he donated for orphanage homes across the country.
The SGNO chairman, Mr Salisu Waziri Ibrahim, said it would be commendable if the singer could allocate a few thousand for northern Nigerian-based orphans.
Salisu also expressed his appreciation to the singer for considering the orphans in his project and urged him not to let distance be a barrier whenever he wants to assist the needy.
According to him:
“Davido was born far from the north, he hardly visits this part of the country and he may not be in touch with some realities we have here even though we are all Nigerian. We have numerous orphans in this part of the country that cannot raise their voices unless for some of us the NGOs that have been speaking for them.”
He also feels it is imperative to call Davido’s attention to the pressing needs of northern orphans.
