ONE POINT FIVE BILLION NAIRA WAS SPENT!
The Kano State Government reportedly spent ₦1.5 billion on its Auren Gata mass wedding programme for 1,500 couples.
Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf said the money covered medical checks for the brides and grooms, ₦100,000 dowry plus ₦100,000 business start up for each couple, plus beds, mattresses, other furniture, and food items.
The programme fulfils one of his campaign promises to help low-income people start married life.
The weddings took place recently with support from the state Hisbah Board.
One point five billion naira...


Potential bandits, Alumajiri and Terrorists breeding program. In as much as the initiative is warm, marriage is not about the solution to unemployment and radicalism.

ReplyDeleteI don't even know what to type. Because, what is this?😀
ReplyDeleteMisplaced priotities. Will this empower the women?
ReplyDeleteIt is well
ReplyDelete1.5 billion divided by 1500 is 1million per person.
ReplyDeleteIf they were each given that 1 million each to invest in business (with close mark monitoring) , wouldn't their lives be better and more enriched?
And they can then decide to marry wives when due.
Let me just swallow what I want to say.
Meanwhile, children will full everywhere and will continue to be useful for political allocations, tugs and voting
Lol 😂😂
ReplyDeleteIt is well.
I hope yhe government is also going to co sider family planning at some stage for them? Don't be surprised to see a couple going on to have 10 children, without any consideration of proper upbringing, thereby leaving them.to fend on the streets for themselves and constituting nuisance, like the ones wickedly removing metals everywhere of the federation. The illiterate Northerners have no idea the damage the politicians are doingʻ welcome on them at all. No progressive initiatives. Marriage Marriage Marriage(Aure!) the key theme in Hausa movies, also playing in reality as the ultimate goal in life. Even social media comments from the Hausa males is mostly Aure matter on the females.
