The donation was made during Joy FM’s award-winning Super Morning Show, Monday.


According to him, the gesture is to encourage media personnel to act as ambassadors of upholding safety protocols.
“It is critical for all of us to get on board to let the people understand that Covid-19 is real”, he appealed.
