Again, Qatar, Inuwa Foundation in Jigawa Donate Foodstuff to Flood Victims

As part of ameliorating the hardship of flood victims in Jigawa State last year, Qatar Charity and Inuwa Foundation, have donated food items to about 1,000 people, affected by the natural disaster, in the State.

Items distributed include spaghetti, rice, semovita, beans and oil.

The foodstuffs, PRNigeria learnt, were distributed at the Inuwa Foundation Head Office, situated at Garun Gabas Road in Hadejia Local Government Area of the State.

600 beneficiaries were selected from the Hadejia Senatorial District (eight local governments), where 60% of the victims come from, while the rest 400 were from eight other Jigawa local governments affected by last year’s flood.

In his remark, the Chairman of Mallam Inuwa Foundation, Dr. Hussaini Yusuf Baban, said Hadejia was the most hit by the disaster, hence it has the highest number of beneficiaries.

He said that they were careful in the selection process so that the right people will benefit.

“We consulted Local Government Chairmen, religious leaders and other stakeholders in the selection. Anybody that benefited here is a victim of this flood either at his home or farm,” he said.

The beneficiaries appreciated Inuwa Foundation and Qatar Charity for coming to their aid.
