The Senator representing Niger East Senatorial District, Senator Mohammed Sani Musa, has distributed Hiace buses, Hijet buses, tricycles, motorcycles, agricultural inputs and other empowerment items to thousands of constituents across the nine local government areas of the district.
The items were distributed on Saturday during the 2026 Mega Empowerment Programme held at the Minna Trade Fair Ground, as part of efforts to improve the economic well-being and livelihoods of constituents.
Speaking at the event, the lawmaker, popularly known as Senator 313 and represented by Prof. Saudaki Abubakar, said 528 beneficiaries from each of the nine local government areas would benefit from fertiliser supplied under the programme.
He said a total of 5,400 bags of fertiliser would be distributed to farmers to boost agricultural production, with each local government area receiving 600 bags.
Senator Sani Musa also announced a cash empowerment of ₦50,000 for vulnerable constituents across the nine local government areas to help cushion the effects of the current economic situation.
According to him, the cash intervention amounts to a total of ₦22.5 million.
Earlier, the Chief Political Adviser to Niger State Governor, Umaru Bago, Hon. Nma Kolo, commended the senator for what he described as his interventions and empowerment of people across the senatorial district.
Kolo urged constituents in Zone B to reciprocate the gesture by supporting Senator Sani Musa’s bid for a third term in the 2027 election.
“Senator Sani Musa has touched many lives and the only way to repay him is to re-elect him for a third term by 2027,” he said.
Also speaking, the Chairman of the Sani Musa Advisory Council, Hon. Abubakar Azozo, assured that the empowerment items would be distributed equitably among the nine local government areas.
