The Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong, has approved N40m for the purchase of rams and cows as Muslims mark the festival of Eid-el-Kabir according to the Punch.
The governor said that the gesture was to cushion the effects of soaring prices of goods. Lalong, who disclosed this through his Deputy Chief of Staff, Mr. Yusuf Hawaja, said that his administration would always make the welfare of the citizens the priority of his government.
Hawaja spoke to newsmen after presenting foodstuffs and a cow to the Jos prison inmates and Aisha Mana Orphanage Home in Jos on Wednesday. He said that as part of the tradition of government in the state, he was giving out some rams and rice for the Muslims to celebrate in happiness.
“The Lalong administration will not relent until he achieves his goals of ensuring the welfare of his people. More good things will come and we will continue to render services to the people,” Hawaja said.
