Member of the House of Representatives, Umar Abdullahi Kamba (Zimbo), stated that his continuation of constituency projects had built three blocks of classrooms in Hodi primary school, another three partnership of classrooms in GGSS FANA and Mudi Day Secondary School with the fence.

According to his media aide, Alhaji Manir Kamba, who spoke via telephone, said such gestures were geared towards uplifting the standard of education in the rural areas whose parents cannot afford private schools. Still, the parents and the children are interested in acquiring at least primary education hence the reason we came in to assist.

“I feel so pained when I see the children of the poor loitering streets or hawking in markets and motor parks in those villages when they are Nigerian citizens,” he said.

He added that healthcare in his projects, after realising the need to complement what the state government is doing so he procured hospital equipment which he donated to Arewa/Dandi hospitals so they could access basic healthcare with ease and affordable to all.

Hon. Umar also took up to the challenge to build the capacity of the physically challenged persons by donating 66 arm wheelchairs to the disabled, the intent he said was to aid their movements from one point to another as they struggle, youths who form at least seventy per cent of our total population were supported with 34 tricycles, 18 motorcycles to empower them to live on themselves and to support their families.

He added that among those who are graduates them about 24 of them were giving appointments at various ministries and parastatals to assist in reducing unemployment in Kebbi and the country at large.

On a humanitarian angle, at least 50 open dug wells were constructed in villages to give them access to water, particularly in Kangiwa villages with acute water problems; he also supported 200 vulnerable women with start-up capital in Arewa/Dandi.

Honourable Zimbo appealed to well to do in the society to assist the needy as the government alone cannot do it; he called on the youth to shun anti-social behaviour such as stealing, prostitution and drugs addiction which he describes as a vehicle propelling crimes in the country.
