For over ten years, Senator Wamakko has been the sole philanthropist, annually spending millions of naira to pay fines and free inmates with minor offences.

This year, the senator has continued this tradition, securing the freedom of 60 inmates to reunite with their families and celebrate Eid while also assisting the government in decongesting detention centres.

The federal lawmaker representing the Sokoto Central Senatorial zone released 60 inmates from various correctional centers after they had paid their fines.

At the release ceremony, the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Barrister Nasir Muhammad Binji, represented by Barrister Umar Aliyu, congratulated the inmates on regaining their freedom.

Chairman of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) Sokoto State chapter, Barrister Rashida Muhammad, urged the inmates to avoid engaging in offences and prayed for Allah to reward Senator Wamakko abundantly.

Senator Wamakko’s representative, Barr. Abdulhamid Zubair, explained that this gesture has been a long-standing part of the senator’s philanthropic efforts.

He called on the freed inmates to reflect on their past actions and repent.

Senator Wamakko provided N10,000 for transportation back to their respective destinations for each of the 60 freed inmates.
