KSrelief Centre To Empower 970 Vulnerable People In Kwara, Abuja

The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) will sponsor 970 vulnerable Nigerians in Abuja and Kwara State under the transformative skills and livelihood empowerment programme for the less privileged Nigerians.

The president of Abibakr As-Sidiq Philanthropic Home (ASPH), Mal. Abdulrazzaq  Salman, disclosed this yesterday while speaking with newsmen  in Ilorin, Kwara State.

Salman said the programme would specifically target internally displaced persons (IDPs), refugees, widows, unemployed youths, and individuals living below the poverty line in communities across the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and Kwara State.

He explained that the initiative was  designed to equip participants with practical vocational skills and entrepreneurial knowledge to foster sustainable economic independence.

“Beneficiaries will receive hands-on training in high-demand, income-generating fields such as tailoring and garment production, catering and food processing, ICT and digital literacy, photography, and other locally relevant trades,” he stated.

Upon completion, Salman said the participants will be provided with starter kits, tools, and operational support to enable them to launch their own income-generating activities immediately.

He emphasised that the intervention focuses on long-term empowerment rather than short-term assistance.

“ By providing practical skills and business support, the programme aims to restore dignity, strengthen resilience, and reduce economic vulnerability among displaced and disadvantaged populations in Abuja and Kwara State,” he said.

He added that the project would be implemented by Abibakr As-Sidiq Philanthropic Home in collaboration with relevant federal and Kwara State authorities to ensure transparency, accountability, and fairness in the nomination and verification of beneficiaries.

He stated  that special consideration would be given to individuals and households facing severe economic hardship and displacement.

Salman  expressed appreciation to the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre for its continued humanitarian commitment to Nigeria, noting that the initiative represents a major contribution to poverty reduction, youth empowerment, and economic development in the targeted areas.
