An Islamic organization, the Jama'atu Izalatu Bida'a Wa Iqamatus Sunnah (JIBWIS) has called on wealthy Nigerians to assist the poor and impoverished members of the society.

The national chairman of the group, Alhaji Ibrahim Na Alhaji said until the wealthy cultivate the habit of assisting their indigent brothers, the much desired national growth would never be achieved.
