 By YM Bina

The Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) governorship candidate in Niger State, Muhammad Mamman Nami, has fulfilled his pledge to donate N15 million and 38 motorcycles to the families affected by the death of 37 artisanal miners who died in the custody of the  Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Niger State recently.

The donation was made through the Niger South Foundation, a non-governmental organisation established by Nami about 20 years ago as part of his humanitarian efforts to support vulnerable members of society.

The donated funds and motorcycles were presented to the affected families by a delegation led by Nami’s Deputy Governorship Candidate in the Niger State governorship race, Dahiru Danhazami Abdul, who represented Nami at the event.

Speaking during the presentation, Dahiru Danhazami Abdul called on the bereaved families to take heart and remain strong despite the painful loss of their loved ones. He said the intervention was aimed at showing solidarity with the affected families and providing support at a difficult time, while praying for strength and comfort for those who lost their loved ones.

The Chairman of the Niger South Foundation, Dr Muhammed Shabba in an interview, said the organisation is committed to supporting vulnerable members of society, particularly those facing hardship due to unforeseen circumstances.

Shabba explained that the donations reflected the foundation’s concern for the welfare of the affected families and its determination to provide practical assistance to help ease their difficulties.

The donated N15 million and 38 motorcycles are expected to provide some relief to the beneficiaries as they continue to cope with the consequences of the tragedy.

The intervention also adds to ongoing efforts by individuals and organisations to support families affected by the tragic deaths of the alleged illegal miners in Niger State.
