From Usman Shehu  Bauchi

The Malam Kawu Youth Rehabilitation and Orphanage Center (MKYROC) Bauchi, undergoing rehabilitation and treatment, has slaughtered and shared four cows and four rams at the just concluded Eid-el Kabir celebration as sacrificial Sallah meat to the vulnerable, orphanage and less privileged members of the Center.

The Proprietor of the Center, Mallam Abdullahi Muhammed Tahir disclosed to journalists on the activities of the centre in Bauchi at the weekend. Where he said "as usual with the centre for each and every Eid-el Kabir, they used to slaughter sacrificial animals for the enjoyment of those undergoing rehabilitation here"

Tahir explained that the 2024 Eid-el Kabir, like the previous years, has bought four cows and four rams out of his own pocket to buy and slaughter the sacrificial animals for the beneficiaries, revealing that only one parent from Niger Republic that had a son at the centre, sent him a donation of N200, OOO to complement his efforts as regards the buying of sacrificial animals.

He expressed dismay that most of the parents with children at the centre don't even bother to come over and see what their wards were doing or how fairly their children were undergoing rehabilitation, for the simple fact that they feels ashame having their children engaged in drugs abuse or other social vices.

"As usual, every year, I hardly get any financial assistance from those bringing their children here for rehabilitation, except one parent from Niger Republic who had a child here, he sent to me a donation to the tune of N200, 000 to complement my efforts of buying the sacrificial animals for the occasion of Eid-el Kabir celebration", Tahir explained.

"Had it been that majority of those parents bringing their children here for rehabilitation to this centre are emulating that parent or father from Niger Republic, the sacrificial animals for those undergoing the rehabilitation each year would have on the increase yearly for maximum benefits"

Tahir further assured that he would not be discharged or relent efforts in offering such humanitarian services to the orphans, vulnerable and less-privileged in the society, especially those undergoing rehabilitation and treatment at  MKYROC, citing example with his ongoing provision of uniforms and other learning materials to pupils/JSS students in Bauchi metropolis.

Malam Abdullahi Tahir appealed to parents generally including who even doesn't have a single child at the rehabilitation centre to frequent themselves and be acquainted with its activities in such a manner as to forestalling other children from engaging in drugs or substance abuse.
