Global mobility platform inDrive has provided over ₦75 million worth of humanitarian relief to residents of Lagos affected by recent community demolitions, reinforcing its growing commitment to social impact and community support in Nigeria.

The relief initiative was delivered in collaboration with the Tolu Aniwura Welfare Foundation (GenerousMe) and took place at St. Paul Catholic Church, Ebute-Metta. It targeted families and individuals who were displaced and left vulnerable following the demolitions.

More than 2,000 beneficiaries received support through the intervention, which focused on meeting immediate survival needs while restoring dignity to affected households. The relief packages included a wide range of essential supplies, from food items to household necessities, baby care products, and educational materials for children.

Food supplies distributed included staple items such as rice, beans, garri, noodles, spaghetti, cooking oil, tomato paste, seasoning cubes, and salt. In addition, beneficiaries received clothing, blankets, sleeping mats, mosquito nets, rechargeable lamps, power banks, and other household essentials. Families with young children were provided with baby care items, while school-aged children received school packs containing bags, notebooks, and writing materials.

Notably, the intervention also extended support to individuals who had previously benefited from inDrive-backed social impact programmes, underscoring the company’s sustained engagement with vulnerable communities beyond one-off initiatives.

Speaking on the effort, Timothy Oladimeji, Country Representative for inDrive Nigeria, explained that the relief initiative reflects the company’s people-first philosophy and its commitment to responding swiftly to urgent social challenges.

He noted that inDrive’s role goes beyond mobility services, emphasizing that the company prioritizes fairness, empathy, and community well-being. According to him, the displacement caused by the demolitions left many families exposed, making it critical to provide immediate and practical support through trusted partnerships.

Also commenting on the collaboration, Adetola Alade, Partnerships Lead at GenerousMe, highlighted the importance of speed and coordination in humanitarian response. He described the partnership with inDrive as effective and timely, enabling aid to reach affected communities when it was most needed.

inDrive continues to expand its presence in Nigeria, the company is increasingly blending technology-driven mobility solutions with impactful social initiatives aimed at promoting inclusion, resilience, and long-term community development.
