See What Saraki Did For Women, Igbo, Hausa, Fulani Groups, Others In Kwara (Photos)
Senate President Bukola Saraki has spent N250 million on job tools distributed to artisans, women associations, taxi drivers, Hausa groups, Igbo groups, Zuru and Fulani groups in the state. Other beneficiaries, according to him, were members of Nigeria Union of Teachers (NUT), Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Nigeria Association of Local Government Employees (NULGE), and Ilorin Emirate Descendants Progressive Union (IEDPU).
Eighty tricycles, 1,777 grinding machines and 664 sewing machines, among other items, were distributed to the beneficiaries.
The empowerment scheme, according to the senate president was designed to alleviate poverty and equip the less privilege to be economically self-reliant.
Saraki was represented at the distribution of the items which took place at his mandate constituency office by the state chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaji Ishola Balogun-Fulani.
Senator Saraki said that the gesture was to give back to reciprocate the honour done to him to represent them at the upper house which gave him the opportunity to become the president of the Senate. He promised the beneficiaries more of such assistance.
The senate president advised the beneficiaries to use the items judiciously so that it can uplift them economically.
The Director-General, Mandate Constituency Office, Hon. Abdulwahab Issa, said beneficiaries of the scheme were selected across the 16 local government areas of the state.
Alhaji Issa said that “we painstakingly spread it round all the Local Government and wards in Kwara Central as well as Kwara North and Kwara South Senatorial districts.
“I appeal to all beneficiaries to use the materials judiciously. On our part at mandate we shall endeavour to monitor how it is being utilised.”
The Emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, represented by the Magaji Are of Ilorin Alhaji Aremu Zubair hailed the effort of the former Kwara State governor and urged other political office holders to emulate him.
