Tinubu Grants N150,000 to Jigawa Business Owners
President Bola Tinubu has recently authorized the distribution of N150,000 grants to business owners across Jigawa State.
This initiative was announced in a release from the State House in Abuja, and Vice President Kashim Shettima shared the news on his official X account.
In his announcement, Shettima highlighted that this grant is a part of Nigeria’s broader strategy to advance its digital transformation and establish a leadership position within Africa.
The Vice President made this declaration during the launch of the AI Expertise Blockchain and Technology Training and Outsourcing Initiative in Dutse.
He emphasized that Nigeria is not merely catching up with global advancements but is set to surpass them in economic and technological development.
Earlier, Shettima had unveiled the 4th edition of the Expanded National Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) Clinic.
As part of this event, he revealed President Tinubu’s directive for a grant of N150,000 to be awarded to each business owner in Jigawa State.
This grant is intended as a form of federal support for MSMEs across Nigeria and is provided as a non-repayable assistance, meaning the recipients are not required to pay it back.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
