Presenting the items at the local government secretariat yesterday,

Governor Mohammed urged the beneficiaries to make judicious use of the items in order to maximise the benefits, saying that aside infrastructural development in the state, one of the priorities of his administration is to empower the lives of the citizens of the state through the acquisition of skills.

“This gesture by the government is aimed at getting people of the area out of poverty, making them self-reliant as well as making them to become employers of labour. When people are empowered in the businesses they are doing, others will benefit”
