A House of Representatives member from Plateau State, Yusuf Gagdi has donated 400 rams and N20 million to his constituents for the Eid-el-Kabir celebrations.
Gagdi, who represents Pankshin/Kanke/Kanam Federal Constituency on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), presented the items on Friday in Dengi, Kanam Local Government Area.
The lawmaker said the gesture was to ensure that his constituents, particularly the less privileged ones, celebrate Sallah with ease.
“It has been my tradition to distribute rams, food items and cash to my constituents during festive periods.
“This year’s celebration came at a time prices of foodstuffs and animals have skyrocketed, hence the need for me to intervene,” he said.
The lawmaker advised his constituents to use the festival to pray for peace in Plateau and Nigeria, and assured his constituents of quality representation.
