The singer handed out donations worth almost N1m comprising cash and essential items.

According to the singer, he opted for direct intervention instead of joining the online giveaway spree in order to reach the vulnerable population who needed the assistance most.

As Kwara State continue to record more cases of coronavirus (COVID-19), the Afro Pop Singer called for calm and added that the identification of people infected with the virus should be seen as a good omen.

Beneficiaries include selected vulnerable people from Ilorin Metropolis and ASA local government area. Food items distributed include Rice, spaghetti, semovita and noodles.

According to him, the negligence and delay from some advanced nations to commence test at early stage on those that might be infected with the virus has worsen the state of things.

"No preferential treatment should be given to patients at this critical moment, because the disease shows no regard to anyone. I wonder why anyone will even want to hide his status or get special treatment in this situation we find ourselves.," he said.

“In the real sense of it, the elites in the society should lead by example in disclosing their status, and sharing their success story, to encourage the common man to show readiness to fight this scourge.”

He implored kwarans to adhere strictly to the precautionary measures for prevention and control of the deadly Coronavirus.

''Wash your hands regularly, apply alcohol based sanitizer and improve personal hygiene. Dear fans, obey all government directives at this critical moment to prevent and control COVID 19 spread," he said.
