Sokoto state Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal has released the sum of over N12million to buy cows for orphans in the state. The said amount which was released through Zakkat and endowment Committee is meant to buy cows on Sallah day across the 85 District Heads of the state.
The break down shows that each district head will collect one hundred and thirty thousand naira to buy bull and distribute it to at least forty orphans across the 85 District heads.

Meanwhile, Governor Tambuwal presented twenty five thousand naira to each District head to buy ram on sallah day. The occasion was held at sultan Palace Sokoto.

Good

good....

In my opinion, this is not supported at all.
so, all these people i am seeing are orphans with age over 50 years.

Modified* I have come to believe that those aged people re not the orphans but district heads representing the orphans! But that money should get to the real orphans oo,, cause anything can happen..

There is no problem in that the government did, it was stated that the fund is from zakkat(donation) and not public fund.

[size=14pt]Why buy Cows rather than skill acquisitions[/size]

Very good gesture by the governor.

May Allah reward you for taking care of ophans especially during this Sallah time.

Wailers, over to you.

Cows for orphans? can't that money be used in doing something better for them?

They are district heads waiting to collect money to buy cows and share to the orphans.

When the sallah is over, what happens next?

Ok.

The cycle will continue, they'll keep coming back.

Must the government show the cash, after the salah they defecate the ram and stay on the street to beg for money again. (almanjiri) there are so many ways to better the life of orphans with that money. Well there headache.

I hope AK47 go follow too

Like that governor said, they don't have the funds to keep the almajiri university running. But they always have money to spend on occasions....

Instead of bringing fishes for me, show and teach me how to fish myself simple. The norths needs education badly.

Some people will just divert the money.... Forget...

people of hate over to you!

searching Google maybe their names is truly in the list... the change must begin here

Bros try to understand the story well, it was distributed through zakkat and not sourced from zakkat. That money is 100% government money.

Just another way to share Niger delta oil revenues that they did not work for.
Will they share it anyhow if it was money from their GROUNDNUT oil?
