THE Oodua Progressive Union, OPU, on Wednesday, donated about N5 million to South-West states— Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ondo and Ekiti— to cushion the effects of the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic.

Kwara and Kogi states also benefitted from the largesse.

The fund, which was directly deposited into each state’s COVID-19 committees’ accounts, is the financial intervention of the OPU members’ resolution at the end of its world congress in January.

The Convener of OPUC, Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Adams, disclosed that the donation will be given to those directly affected by the pandemic, adding that the donation was from the contribution of individual members all over the world.
