LETTER OF APPRECIATION

I wish, on behalf of the Government and people of Bendel State, to thank you immensely for the very substantial donation of N200,000.00 (Two hundred thousand naira) which you made to the Bendel State Development Fund when the fund was launched on Saturday, 15th December 1984.

By your substantial donation you have identified yourself in a very remarkable way with the development efforts of the present Administration. I need hardly emphasize that your contribution will go a long way to enhance the much desired socio-economic development of the State. You are also re-assured that the fund will be managed judiciously and with the greatest sense of accountability and probity.

Once more, I wish to express my profound gratitude for your outstanding act of generosity and patriotism.

We will continue to count on your co-operation at all times.
