Gov. Abba Yusuf Distributes 7,158 Goats To Empower Women, Eradicate Poverty In Kano

Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, has launched the second phase of the Livestock Fattening Programme, aiming to combat poverty and promote economic self-reliance.
The initiative, under the Kano Agro-Pastoral Development Project, involves distributing livestock to women across the state’s 44 local government areas, supporting livestock entrepreneurship among vulnerable groups.
During the flag-off ceremony, Yusuf announced that 7,158 goats would be distributed to 2,386 women, with each beneficiary receiving three goats.
The programme also plans to distribute 1,342 cows and 1,822 rams to women and youths in subsequent phases.
Yusuf reiterated his administration’s commitment to tackling poverty through innovative initiatives, describing the programme as a cornerstone of efforts to empower women and youths while boosting economic independence.
He warned beneficiaries against misusing the livestock, stressing accountability and ensuring the initiative achieves its intended goals.
“This initiative is not just about distributing livestock but about fostering a sustainable economic model that uplifts communities and reduces dependency on government aid,” the governor said.
