Yari distributes 400 cows, 1,500 rams to APC, neighbours

Former governor of Zamfara State, Senator Abdul’aziz Yari (APC-Zamfara) has distributed 400 cows and 1,500 rams to his neighbours and the All Progressives Congress (APC) executives in the state for Eid-el-Kabir celebrations.

Yari distributed 500 rams to his neighbours and less privileged families in Talata-Mafara town, Talata-Mafara local government area of the state.

Also, 1,000 rams and 400 cows were donated to APC executives.

The Chairman of the distribution Committee, Alhaji Sha’aya Sarkin-Fawa, disclosed this while presenting the rams to the beneficiaries in Talata-Mafara on Thursday.

“You know, this is an annual gesture from our leader, Sen. Yari aimed at assisting the less privileged households to celebrate the Eid-El-Kabir with ease.

“This is for his neighbours, less privileged households, Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and orphans in Talata-Mafara town only.

“This is in addition to the 1,000 rams and 400 cows he earlier donated to APC executives in the State, Local Government, and Ward levels across the state through his political organisation,” he said.

Sarkin-Fawa, a chieftain of APC in the state, commended the former governor for his various socio-economic intervention programmes supporting people at the grassroots.

He called on Muslims to use the Eid-El-Kabir period to pray for peace and stability in the state and Nigeria at large.
