Food items for distribution include 1000 bags of rice, 1000 gallons of vegetable oil, 1000 cartons of tomato paste, 1000 cartons of specially packaged garri and 1000 cartons of custard and will be distributed among the 25 local government areas in the state.

The Governor’s Wife appreciated the Wife of the President for picking interest in the condition of the less privileged, widows and the physically challenged individuals in the state adding that this gesture will go a long way in helping the beneficiaries.

“This donation is made in the spirit of the Ramadan Fast as the President’s Wife contributes her quota towards alleviating the suffering of the less privileged. This particular gesture is a display of the special affection of Mrs. Buhari for the ordinary Nigerlites and we are grateful”, Bello stated.

She then appealed to the people to support the President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration especially in his fight against corruption, job creation and youth empowerment.

“It is true that although you might be going through some form of hardship right now, we need to preserve a little more because if we exercise patience with the government, very soon, we will all see the dividends of the change that we have been anticipating because sustainable change is truly a gradual process.”
