Zulum Shares Nigerian Government’s Food Relief To 10,000 Families

Prof. Babagana Zulum, Governor of Borno State, has overseen the distribution of food relief donated by the federal government to over 10,000 families in the Mafa local government area.

The distribution took place on Tuesday in four locations in Mafa town, the headquarters of the local government council.

Each of the 10,000 heads of households received a relief package that included one bag of maize grain.

While supervising the distribution, Zulum thanked the federal government for its intervention and mentioned that some of the food items were distributed in Gwoza and Nganzai.

HE stated, “This food item is the final batch of those donated by the federal government to the state. You may recall that we shared similar food items in Gwoza and Nganzai a few months back.”

The governor also handed out N150 million to 15,000 females in Mafa town.

In addition to financial assistance, Zulum distributed wrappers purchased by the Borno State government.

Each of the over 15,000 females will be given a package containing N10,000 cash and one wrapper.

“Each female head of household will receive a wrapper and N10,000 from our Microfinance Bank,” the governor said.
