The Senator representing Kano South Senatorial District, Senator Suleiman Abdurrahman Kawu Sumaila, has distributed over 15,000 bags of rice alongside 100 tricycles and 100 motorcycles to constituents across the district as part of his Ramadan support and economic empowerment initiative.
The distribution exercise, which reflects the Senator’s unwavering commitment to improving the welfare of his people, included 100 tricycles (Adaidaita Sahu) and 100 motorcycles aimed at boosting small-scale transportation businesses and enhancing economic self-reliance among beneficiaries.
A statement on Monday by Abbas Adam Abbas, the Senior Special Assistant on Media & Publicity to the Senator, said under the equitable distribution framework adopted for the exercise, each Local Government Area in Kano South received 500 bags of rice.
Additional allocations were made to various community groups, associations, and key stakeholders to ensure inclusivity and broad-based impact.

“This intervention forms part of our broader commitment to enhancing the well-being of our people, particularly during this sacred month of Ramadan.
“It is also in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, which focuses on sustainable empowerment and people-centered governance,” the Senator stated.
The event was graced by high-profile dignitaries, including the Deputy Senate President, Senator Barau I. Jibrin, Speaker of the Kano State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Jibril Isma’il Falgore, who represented Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, Member of the House of Representatives representing Rano, Kibiya, and Bunkure Federal Constituency, Rt. Hon.
