Former Zamfara State governor, Senator Abdulaziz Yari has approved the distribution of 145 truckloads of maize and 42,000 bags of 10kg Semovita to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and vulnerable households across the 14 Local Government Areas of the state.

The Chairman of the Senator Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar Palliative Distribution Committee, Dr. Lawal M. Liman, disclosed this after a meeting of the committee in Gusau on Saturday.

According to Dr. Liman, each of Zamfara’s 14 Local Government Areas will receive 10 truckloads of maize and 3,000 bags of Semovita, while the remaining trucks have been earmarked to strengthen the overall distribution exercise and ensure that assistance reaches communities most affected by hardship.

He explained that 210,000 residents across the state’s 147 political wards have been targeted in this latest phase of the intervention.

Dr. Liman noted that the programme reflects Senator Yari’s longstanding commitment to supporting vulnerable families, particularly at a time when many households continue to face significant economic challenges.

He described the initiative as part of a sustained humanitarian effort that has, over the past three years, provided food assistance, agricultural inputs and other relief materials to communities across Zamfara.

The Chairman disclosed that more than 1.7 million people have benefited from Senator Yari’s humanitarian initiative, and called on the people of Zamfara State to continue to pray for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Senator Abdulaziz Yari, for God’s wisdom and strength in addressing the country’s economic and security challenges.

The committee reaffirmed its commitment to ensuring that the distribution process remains transparent, fair and orderly, with all approved items delivered to their intended beneficiaries across the state.
