He said at the symbolic presentation of the items to representatives of each of the nine local government areas, that he was moved by the plights of his people who have been suffering due to the lockdown declared by the government to contain the spread of COVID-19.

While flagging off the distribution of palliatives to indigent members of his constituency, Senator Sani Musa who was represented by his Personal Assistant, Sagir Taffida said 9,990 households in the 99 wards of the nine local government areas under the Senatorial District are to benefit from the gesture.

According to him “you can see what is happening since the outbreak of COVID-19. People are suffering because of the lockdown declared by the government to contain the pandemic.

“Many people have lost their means of livelihood, jobs and businesses have been affected. People are complaining of hunger. You cannot keep people at home and not cater for them. So, I felt I should reach out to my people and help them. I am touched seeing them suffer.”

Breakdown of items that are to be distributed under the second phase of the palliatives; accordingly, he said “we are giving people 25kg bag of Maize and rice. In each of the packs, we also included oil, salt, seasoning, and noodles for women and children. Each household would get one pack.

“In every ward, there are more than 100 households, which means we are reaching out to a total of 9,990 households in Niger East.”

“I will continue to reach out to my people to ensure that they do not suffer double tragedy,” he said.

He further disclosed that a monitoring committee would be working closely with the committees in each of the local government areas to ensure that the palliatives get to the grassroots.

Senator Musa added that, “the distribution would take nine days, because we shall focus on each local government area to make sure everyone is covered before we move to another local government the next day. So, you can be sure that, there would be no room for anyone to divert the items.”

Representatives from each of the local government areas commended the efforts by Senator Musa, urging other politicians and appointees in the Senatorial District to do same.

Another representative from Suleja, Aminu Mohammed said, “We feel very happy to have someone who has decided to touch the lives of the common people in the society. We are grateful to Senator Sani Musa. It has not been easy because of the Coronavirus challenge. But, we feel a bit relieved with the palliatives from our senator.”

Also, Yakubu Garba from Bosso local government thanked Senator Musa for his kind gesture. He however called on other politicians in Niger East to emulate the legislator.
