A philanthropist and Danruwantan Gwandu in Kebbi State, Idris Shuaibu, has kicked off his annual empowerment programme in Bagudo Local Government area of the state.
The event, which drew notable figures from across the state’s political and economic landscape, is geared towards ensuring that residents in the benefitting communities enjoy the undiluted dividends of democracy and the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu, as personified by the goodwill of the donor.
The proposed number of recipients earmarked to benefit from this year’s empower programme from the Danruwantan Gwandu of Kebbi State, is projected at 1,000 by the end of January 2026, but the numbers have risen to over 300 persons as at the time of this report.
Some of the beneficiaries of the empowerment programme expressed their joy at Shuaibu’s benevolent foresight, which has constantly been a means of sustenance for them, as they prayed for Allah’s blessings upon him. They promised to also utilise the free grants for worthy sustainable ventures.
The Danruwantan Gwandu of Kebbi State, Idris Shuaibu, also conveyed deep gratitude to every stakeholder who was present, including the member representing Bagudo-Suru Federal Constituency in the 10th National Assembly, Bello Kaoje, Deputy Speaker of the Kebbi State House of Assembly, representing Bagudo East constituency, Muhammed Samaila, and member from Bagudo West State Constituency, Sani Abubakar Lolo, with Chairmen and Chairpersons of diverse socio-political groups.
In his words; “my gratitude is beyond words, it knows no bounds…for everyone who came to show their support for my empowerment program, both from within Kebbi State, and outside, I am grateful for your presence, and I promise to do more for my people”.
While vowing to ensure that no resident in Bagudo Local Government Area would be left out in all his various empowerment programmes, the Danruwantan Gwandu requested the residents to keep faith with God and with the government. He also assured them of better days to come in the future.
Shuaibu is the Coordinator of Tinubu Kauran Tinubu, TKT in Bagudo Local Government Area of Kebbi State and Treasurer Matan. He is also the Coordinator of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, IPMAN, in Kebbi State.
Through his dedicated humanitarian efforts, Idris Bagudo has also succinctly gone the entire mile towards ensuring an endearing legacy for the administration of Kebbi State Governor, Nasiru Idris Kaura, under whose tenure he has continued to empower his people.
Bagudo complimented the Governor for his genuine support towards his empowerment programmes and to the people of Bagudo Federal Constituency.
