Over the weekend, the lawmaker representing Kogi Central Senatorial District, Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, distributed cash to market women in some districts.
A statement issued by her Chief Press Secretary, Arogbonlo Israel, said the senator was at home for a fertiliser empowerment programme aimed at supporting farmers in the district, and took the opportunity to visit markets in Kogi Central and provided financial assistance directly to market women.
She visited Ihima Central Market, Oboroke, Bariki Market in Okene, Ogaminana Market in Adavi, and Nyamanyama/Ganaja Market in Ajaokuta, where she handed the cash to the market women.
