General Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma (rtd) donated N500 million to the Katsina-Ala Old Boys Association (KAOBA) to support its N5 billion fundraising campaign for the rehabilitation and modernization of Government College, Katsina-Ala, Benue State. The announcement was made by Benue State Deputy Governor Barrister Sam Ode, representing Governor Hyacinth Alia, during the fundraising event in Abuja.
