    Katsina City News Mobilizes N5m to Support Less Privilege, Needy in Ramadan

    A WhatsApp group called Katsina City News has assisted thousands of less privilege and needy from Katsina State, in this year’s Ramadan fasting.

    However, PRNigeria gathered that the group’s philanthropic gesture was made possible by the sum of N5,117,000, which it got as donations from some spirited individuals.

    Members of the WhatsApp group are indigenes of Katsina State from various business and political backgrounds that have come together under one umbrella for the development of Katsina State.

    The ‘Fasting Committee’ established by the Katsina City News is under the leadership of Alhaji Lawal Aliyu Daura, a former Head of Service in the Katsina State.

    Members of the committee include Hajiya Mariya Abdullahi Bakori, Alhaji Ibrahim Ahmad Katsina, Alhaji Lawal Rufai Safana, Alhaji Dauda Kurfi, Hajiya Murja Saulawa, Barister Ahmad Danbaba Batsari, Alhaji Muntari Lawal Kofar Soro, Alhaji Hamza Yunusa Jibia, SSA to the governor, and Alhaji Sabo Musa Hassan, among others.

    This is the fourth year that this committee has undertaken this work during the month of Ramadan, PRNigeria gathered.

    This year, the committee gave food and cash assistance to indigent persons in about five hundred families.

    The committee also facilitated the release of seven youths from prison, and also settled the fines of 20 women who were taken to court over money-related disputes.

    Muhammad Danjuma is the founder of Katsina City News and Katsina City News magazine. He created the forum in 2015.
