The Zamfara State Government has commended the Dangote Foundation for its outstanding efforts in supporting orphans and people with special needs, particularly through the provision of food assistance at a time when many citizens are in need of relief.

The Acting Governor of the Ssate, Mani Malam Mummuni Masamar Mudi, made this known while speaking at the official flag-off ceremony for the distribution of rice donated by the Dangote Foundation to vulnerable groups across the state. The event was held at the Zamfara State Zakat and Endowment Board Gusau. 

According to the Deputy Governor, the Foundation donated 20,000 bags of 10kg rice, with each ward across the fourteen local government areas of the state receiving 80 bags and above.

Mani Malam Mummuni praised the Dangote Foundation, established by renowned business magnate Alhaji Aliko Dangote, and called on other wealthy individuals in the country to emulate such humanitarian gestures by initiating similar programs aimed at supporting the vulnerable in society.

He also commended the Governor of Zamfara State, Dauda Lawal, for his continuous efforts in assisting the people, especially during this critical period. He noted that the state government has provided seven cows to associations of persons with special needs to enable them to celebrate alongside others.

Mani Malam Mummuni also reiterated the state government’s position regarding its political alignment, stating that the move from the PDP to the APC is aimed at fostering greater development in the state, particularly in the area of security.
