Gov. Sule’s aide donates N1 million to 100 Nasarawa women
Danlami Lawal, Personal Assistant on ICT to the Nasarawa State governor, Abdullahi Sule, has donated N1million to 100 women in the Moroa community of the state to improve their standard of living.
Mr Lawal, who made the donation on Friday in Moroa, Kokona LGA, said that the gesture was to empower the women, saying, “This is my widow’s mite to them. This is to improve on their standard of living and for the overall development of Moroa community and Kokona LGA.’’
Mr Lawal assured the community of his commitment to initiating more programmes that would have direct bearing on their lives.
Also, the Speaker of the state House of Assembly, Danladi Jatau, urged support for the administration of Mr Sule.
This, he said, was to enable the people of the state to enjoy more dividends of democracy especially at the grass-roots.
Mr Jatau commended Mr Lawal for putting smiles on the faces of the women and urged the beneficiaries to ensure the judicious use of the funds.
He said, “I want to appreciate Mr Lawal for this noble gesture. This is what we call giving back to the people what the people have given you. What Mr Lawal is doing today is also an appreciation of what the governor has done to the Moroa community. Mr Lawal is giving back to the people what he is getting from the government of Mr Sule in his own little way and this is very important.’’
