Am being tempted to post this in joke section but for sake of not derailing grin

Governor Muhammad Badaru of Jigawa State says his administration has concluded arrangement to empower 8,610 widows across the state.

Badaru made this known on Monday in an interview with newsmen in Dutse, the state capital.

He said between 25 and 30 widows would be selected from each of the 287 wards in the state to benefit from the programme.

Badaru said the beneficiaries would be given two she-goats and one he-goat to rear and that widows would be given the breed that gives birth to three off-springs twice a year because of their economic value.

He said the gesture would go a long way in assisting the women in taking care of their children in terms of feeding and schooling.

The governor said the beneficiaries would not face difficulties in finding feeds for the animals as rural dwellers.

This is not actually a bad move. If they can breed and nurture their goats properly, It could turn into a huge business.

That's nice... I hope they have done some research on the productivity of this move? And are ready to sustain it by providing some mentoring and vert assistance...

Most of our leaders are very short sighted in their decisions and policies! ....But they speak intelligently (ofcause, with the exceptions of Doyin Okupe and Lai Muhammed) ... ...


We need long term policies and goals...

How much is a goat being sold?
How much is school fees paid per term? Or per semester as the case may be?
Knowing how north gives birth, is this scheme appropriate?
Mr. Governor if this is what you call the media and boast of empowerment, you're not worthy to be a ward chairman, councilor, not to talk of Governor
The north needs serious Economic development & Investment!
