In response to the catastrophic flooding in Maiduguri, Borno State, BUA Group, one of Africa’s largest conglomerates, has pledged N2 billion to support flood victims and recovery initiatives. This donation comes as part of President Bola Tinubu’s appeal to the private sector to assist in alleviating the impact of the disaster. The floods have displaced thousands of residents, wreaking havoc on homes, infrastructure, and livelihoods.
The donation, consisting of N1 billion in cash and N1 billion worth of essential food items, aims to ease the hardship faced by affected communities. BUA Group’s Chairman and founder of the Abdul Samad Rabiu Africa Initiative (ASR Africa), Abdul Samad Rabiu, personally oversaw the handover of the aid, reinforcing the company’s commitment to helping Nigerians in times of need.

A Swift and Meaningful Response to Crisis
Addressing the press during the donation event, Rabiu emphasized the urgency of providing immediate relief to the displaced and vulnerable population. “The recent flooding in Maiduguri has caused untold hardship for thousands of families. At BUA, we believe it is our responsibility, as an organization deeply rooted in the fabric of Nigerian society, to act swiftly and meaningfully in providing relief to those affected,” he said.
The food donation includes essential commodities such as flour, pasta, sugar, and rice, which will be distributed in the hardest-hit areas. These items will provide immediate nourishment to the flood victims, many of whom have been displaced and are struggling with basic necessities.
Rabiu also noted that a N1 billion cash donation had been presented to the Borno State government through Governor Babagana Zulum. This financial support will be directed toward ensuring swift and effective aid distribution to those in need.
A Call to Collective Action
BUA Group’s gesture comes as a call to action for other corporate entities and well-meaning individuals. Rabiu expressed hope that this donation would inspire others to step forward and contribute to the recovery efforts. “Our N2 billion donation to the victims of the recent flooding in Borno is our own way of supporting the most vulnerable in times of crisis,” Rabiu added.
He urged other organizations and individuals to join in the effort to restore hope and rebuild lives, saying, “Our thoughts are with the families and individuals who have been affected by this disaster. As we continue to extend our support, we urge other corporate organizations and well-meaning individuals to join us in this effort to restore hope and rebuild lives.”
Commitment to Long-Term Recovery
Beyond immediate relief, BUA Group has pledged to monitor the situation closely and ensure that necessary resources are provided to aid the recovery and rebuilding efforts in Maiduguri. Through ASR Africa, the company’s philanthropic arm, they aim to provide long-term support, ensuring that displaced persons can return to their communities and rebuild their lives after the disaster.
Conclusion: A Beacon of Hope Amidst Adversity
BUA Group’s generous donation highlights the vital role that the private sector can play in supporting humanitarian efforts during crises. In the face of devastating floods, BUA’s timely intervention offers a beacon of hope to the affected communities. By providing both financial aid and essential supplies, the conglomerate has not only alleviated immediate suffering but also set a powerful example for other organizations to follow.
As Maiduguri continues its journey toward recovery, the importance of collective action, involving both public and private sectors, cannot be overstated. BUA Group’s contribution serves as a testament to the power of unity in times of crisis and a call to others to rise to the challenge.
