Former Nigerian Senator, Dino Melaye, has advised billionaires and philanthropists looking to donate to the public during the COVID-19 lockdown.

Dino took to his Instagram page to pass the message across.

He said, “My singular advise to our billionaires, Corporate Nigeria, multinationals, philanthropists and donors.

“Please buy medicament, food and drinks plus money and share to the people directly at the federal or state level. I no hear English (I don’t understand English) so don’t ask me why.”
