At the event held at Laziz Hall in Tambuwal local government area of the State, the federal lawmaker, in continuation of the Abdussamad Dasuki Scholarship Programme, gave scholarships to 200 university students, with the Batch ‘A’ comprising students with 3.00 CGPA and above, to reward their academic performance, and students with CGPA of less than 3.00 to encourage them.

In addition, Hon. Dasuki also announced the sponsorship of between 20 to 30 students on a full—funded scholarship program at Iconic University for Master’s in Information Technology (MIT) and Master’s in Public Health (MPH). Among the criteria for winning the scholarships were good first degree and the recipient must be indigent. No less than N600,000 will be spent on each benefiting student till the end of the program.

Also, as part of his Strategic Empowerment Programme 2024 for his constituency, Dasuki distributed hundreds of water pumping machines for irrigation and hundreds of bags of fertilizer to 700 constituents, cutting across the 21 wards of Kebbe/Tambuwal federal constituency.

Cash grants were also given to tens of women groups, as part of his empowerment programs for his constituents.

Speaking at the occasion, Hon Dasuki, who is also the Santurakin Sokoto, reiterated his determination to ensure that no university student from his constituency drops out of school due to inability to pay school fees, adding that he would also continue to reward students with high CGPA.

Dasuki assured the students that whoever amongst them that gets a great CGPA would be sponsored abroad for further studies, just as was done for two students with very high CGPA in 2022.

Noting the importance of education, Dasuki said he would continue to support the educational pursuits of young people in his constituency so that they would be able to compete favourably with their peers in different parts of the country and around the world for opportunities.

He expressed strong optimism that his investment in human development through scholarship and economic empowerment would lead to the development of Kebbe/Tambuwal federal constituency of Sokoto State.

Earlier in the year, in his continuous bid to support small business-owners, including farmers, traders and artisans, and enhance the livelihoods of people in Kebbe/Tambuwal Federal Constituency, Dasuki disbursed grants to some small and medium-scale enterprise owners.

At the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) grant, tagged ‘It’s Coming’, in August, aimed at helping people of Kebbe/Tambuwal federal constituency weather the prevailing economic crisis and make them to be self-reliant, cheques were distributed to beneficiaries in Kuchi District, Kebbe local government area by teams from the Dasuki Office. Beneficiaries received grants ranging from ₦100,000 to ₦250,000 each.
