Abejide Launches Kano Empowerment Drive, Mobilises Yoruba Residents for Tinubu
A member representing Yagba Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Hon. Leke Abejide, has inaugurated a 27-member committee to coordinate an empowerment programme across the 44 Local Government Areas of Kano State, with the intention of mobilizing over one million Yoruba residents in Kano to vote for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s reelection, thenewsnigeria.com.ng reported.
The Kano-based business mogul unveiled plans for the empowerment programme on Friday, and engaged one million Yoruba residents across the 44 Local Government Areas of Kano State in support of the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Abejide made this known while addressing newsmen at the palace of the Oba of Yoruba Kano, shortly after inaugurating a 27-member committee comprising men and women to coordinate the initiative across the state.
The empowerment programme is targeted particularly at widows, the less privileged, vulnerable members of the community, youths, women, artisans, entrepreneurs and other residents in need of economic support.
According to Abejide, the initiative is designed to provide practical assistance to members of the Yoruba community in Kano and help improve their economic wellbeing.
