The president of Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, has presented 40,000 bags of rice to the vulnerable people in Jos North and Jos South local government areas of Plateau State.
Bashir Adamu, who represented the president of Dangote Group, presented the items, which included bags of salt and sugar, to the state governor, Caleb Mutfwang , at the old Government House, Rayfield, Jos.
According to him, the rice would reduce the hardship in the state while expressing optimism that the items will reach the target audience.
Governor Mutfwang, while symbolically receiving the items, expressed gratitude to the donor, saying that no matter how rich a person is, if he does not reach out to the downtrodden, the affluence is nothing after all.
According to the governor, the poorest of the poor will benefit from the gifted items, encouraging other rich people to emulate Dangote’s good gesture.
He said that the government is trying to get fertiliser to the farmers because it is the rainy season, which will ultimately enhance food production.
