Member representing Magumeri/Kaga/Gubio Federal Constituency in Borno State, Hon. Usman Zannah, has distributed thousands of bags of rice, sugar, beans, millet and spaghetti to members of his constituency to cushion their hardship during the holy month of Ramadan.
He also gifted two vehicles to some constituents to ease their mobility and empower them economically.
Flagging off the exercise yesterday in Maiduguri, Hon.

Zannah who is well known as a lawmaker that have so far secured the highest number of permanent and pensionable jobs at the national and state levels to some members of his constituency, in addition to several empowerment programmes, especially for women and youths in the state, said the entire month of Ramadan in essence, is a celebration of the Quran’s revelation, which is described as a “Guide and Mercy for those who do good.” (31:3 Holy Quran).
While felicitating with his constituents and the entire Muslim Ummah for the beginning of the 2026 Ramadan Fasting, Zannah urged people to use the period to inculcate the virtues of patience, devotion, self-control, humility, kindness, forgiveness, altruism and other virtues of Islam that should be extended beyond the month of Ramadan for a just and peaceful society.
He appreciated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Vice -President, Senator Kashim Shettima for keeping up to their 2023 campaign promises, particularly in revamping the economy for the better by actualizing the ‘Renewed Hope Agenda’, which the positive results have started manifesting in all sectors within the last three years.
He also commended Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State for the positive transformation of the state.
Also speaking, some of the Legislative Aides (SLAs) to the lawmaker, Muktar FK and Umar Grema who were among the coordinators for the distribution, expressed happiness with how the beneficiaries conducted themselves in an orderly manner that led to transparent and rancour -free exercise.
The chairman of Magumeri local government area, Dr. Ali Yaumi, who spoke on behalf of the two council chairmen of Gubio and Kaga, Hon. Mali Bulama Mali and Hon. Zanna Lawan Ajimi commended the lawmaker for the timely intervention during the holy month of Ramadan.
One of the stakeholders, Amb. Goni Kundube in a vote of thanks, expressed gratitude to Hon. Zannah for the gesture, and pledged their unflinching support and loyalty to him and the ruling APC at all times.
They also prayed Allah (God) to bless the lawmaker, grant him good health, long life and prosperity as he continue to represent them at the Green Chamber.
