…Empowers 1,300 traders with N130m monthly

The Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Barau Jibrin, has urged constituents in Kano North Senatorial District to remain united and support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf and all All Progressives Congress (APC) candidates in the 2027 elections.

Barau made the call on Thursday in Abuja while receiving two delegations from Dambatta Local Government Area at the National Assembly.

In a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ismail Mudashir, Barau disclosed that 1,300 petty traders, artisans and other beneficiaries in the district receive N100,000 startup capital each month under his empowerment programme, which translates to N130 million disbursed monthly to beneficiaries across the senatorial district.

The delegations included representatives from the 21 wards of Dambatta LGA led by a former member of the Kano State House of Assembly, Hon. Hafiz Sani Maidaji, and another group led by Barau’s Senior Legislative Aide in Dambatta, Alhaji Abdullahi Dan Bayero.

The groups said they visited to appreciate the senator for projects and interventions in Kano North, including the monthly cash grants, distribution of fertilisers, water pumps, grinding machines, sewing machines, motorcycles and refrigerators.

Barau assured the people of Dambatta and Kano North of his continued commitment to empowerment, education, agriculture and infrastructure.

“I appeal to all of us to remain united. Let us continue to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, myself as your Senator, and all candidates of the APC contesting the 2027 elections,” he said.

“With unity, loyalty, and collective commitment, we can achieve a more prosperous Kano North and a stronger Nigeria.

“Our objective is to ensure that every household in Kano North has something meaningful to do and that our people become economically independent,” he added.
