The member representing Kaduna South federal constituency, Hussaini Abdulkarim Kero, has approved the sponsorship of students from the constituency to study different courses at the School of Post-basic Psychiatric Nursing, Federal Neuro-psychiatric Hospital Barnawa Kaduna.
He sponsored the students through the Hussaini Kero Foundation, which strives to boost the region’s human capacity-building efforts.
The legislator’s spokesman, Aminu Josawa, told journalists that the benefiting students were selected because they displayed exceptional promise and dedication throughout their studies.
“Their commitment to excellence and drive to make a meaningful impact in the healthcare realm have been evident, thus reaffirming the credibility and wisdom of Hon. Hussani Abdulkarim Kero’s selection process”, he said.
