“The distribution of 25,000 bags of rice to Kebbi people would help to feed the vulnerable during Ramadan,” he said.

Attahiru recalled that similar consignment was delivered to Kebbi State in 2019, in addition to the provision of other food items by the foundation.

He appealed to Dangote to actualize his pledge of providing financial assistance to the less- privileged in the state to engage in small- scale entrepreneurship.
Attahiru urged other wealthy Nigerians to emulate Dangote in the gesture by supporting those in need.
