Kano Govt Receives Ramadan Relief Items From Saudi Authorities

The Consulate-General of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in Kano has held an official ceremony to distribute 1,250 cartons of dates to the state government and other northern Nigerian states as part of its annual humanitarian relief efforts.

The event took place in Kano yesterday as religious groups, the underprivileged and orphanages benefitted from the humanitarian relief.

The initiative, facilitated by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief), aims to support vulnerable families across the country and strengthen the deep-rooted ties between the two nations.

The Consul General of the Custodian of the two holy mosques in Kano, Khalil Adamawy, conveyed the kingdom’s dedication to humanitarian causes.

“I express my profound gratitude to King Salman bin Abdulaziz and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for their unwavering support in providing aid to Muslims and underserved communities worldwide.

“I want to emphasise that Saudi Arabia remains steadfast in its commitment to fostering Islamic solidarity and providing relief to those in need.

“This year’s distribution includes tonnes of dates for Abuja which took place last week and another 50 tonnes for Kano and some northern Nigerian States which arrangments are ongoing on to deliver it to them, continuing Saudi Arabia’s tradition of assisting Nigeria through humanitarian donations” he stated.

Appreciating the gesture, Kano State Governor Abba Yusuf, who was represented by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Faruk Ibrahim thanked the Saudi authorities.
