Jigawa Governor Promises President Tinubu Support From Citizens in 2027 Elections
Governor Umar Namadi of Jigawa State has assured President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that the citizens of Jigawa will reciprocate his efforts in the upcoming 2027 elections.
Speaking at the official launch of the distribution of ATM cards to beneficiaries of the second phase of the Federal Government’s Cash Transfer program in Dutse, Namadi praised the various initiatives introduced by the Federal Government to fight poverty and hunger.
Namadi mentioned that under the second phase of the Conditional Cash Transfer program, approximately 23,000 less privileged residents in the state will each receive 75,000 naira.
He emphasized that this initiative aligns with President Tinubu’s “Renewed Hope Initiative,” which aims to uplift vulnerable communities and support their businesses.
The launch of this second phase is a testament to the commitment of the Federal Government to improve the lives of the less privileged, Namadi remarked.
He further noted that the people of Jigawa have a strong tradition of showing appreciation for good deeds.
“Our people have a good culture of repaying good deeds with good. I’m confident the people of Jigawa will repay you for all that you have done for them, he added.”
It has been reported that Niger State and some northern states have come together and agreed to take down 979 forests in order to strengthen national security.
This was revealed by the Niger State Governor, represented by his deputy, Yakubu Garba, at the passing-out parade in Mutum Daya.
He also shared that the government will support in any way they can in order to achieve this and strengthen security in Nigeria.
“The state will make necessary arrangements to support and empower the Forest Guard families for their service to the nation. We will provide them with adequate healthcare insurance scheme.”
Nigerian news analyst, Mahmud Jega, has shared his opinion on the recent airstrike carried out by the United States in Nigeria, stating that Nigerians should not blame President Bola Tinubu for the incident.
Jega made this statement during a recent interview, where he said he does not believe many people will hold the Tinubu administration responsible, as Donald Trump had issued threats against Nigeria long before Tinubu’s administration.
“No, I don’t think many people will blame the Tinubu administration for what is happening now because President Donald Trump, when he first made the threats, it was clearly not in coordination with the Tinubu administration or the government of Nigeria,” Jega said.
It has been reported that the United States carried out an airstrike targeting ISIS in the northwest region of Nigeria. The order was reportedly given by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS terrorist elements in northwest Nigeria,” Trump said.
He added, “I have previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.”
