SPEAKER ABBAS TAJUDDEEN FLAGS OFF DISTRIBUTION OF FIRE-FIGHTING EQUIPMENT, FREE MEDICAL OUTREACH IN ZARIA. By Mikail Ibrahim Fagachi
Rt. Hon. Dr. Abbas Tajuddeen, has flagged off the distribution of fire-fighting equipment to the Federal Fire Service in Zaria, alongside a free medical outreach programme aimed at providing healthcare services to people across his constituency and neighbouring communities.
The medical outreach includes the provision of medical consumables and general outpatient treatment, eye screening and cataract surgeries, hearing aids, as well as maternal and child birth delivery kits. The initiatives, according to the Speaker, form part of his efforts to support government agencies and provide meaningful dividends of democracy to the people he represents.
Speaking during the ceremony, Speaker Abbas Tajuddeen described the occasion as another historic event in his record of representing the people, saying the programmes were made possible through his commitment to improving the lives of his constituents.
He attributed the success of the interventions to the approval and support of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying the President's administration has continued to provide opportunities for programmes that would improve the welfare of Nigerians.
Dr. Abbas Tajuddeen therefore called on all people of the Zaria Federal Constituency, irrespective of political affiliation, as well as people from neighbouring Local Government Areas, to support and vote for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for continuity, saying this would enable them to enjoy more dividends of democracy.
Earlier in his welcome address, the Chairman of Zaria Local Government, Engineer Jamilu Ahmad Jaga, said Speaker Abbas Tajuddeen had initiated various empowerment programmes, palliatives, infrastructure and road projects, while also facilitating employment opportunities for people within the constituency.
Representing the Kaduna State Governor, Malam Uba Sani, the Commissioner of Works and former Speaker of the Kaduna State House of Assembly, Aminu Abdullahi Shagali, described the leadership of Speaker Abbas Tajuddeen as exemplary to other elected leaders. In his remarks, the Assistant Comptroller-General of the Federal Fire Service, ACGF Ahmad Garba Karaye, expressed appreciation to the Speaker for providing the fire-fighting equipment and commended philanthropist Alhaji Umar Dan'Aljanna for constructing a hall for the Federal Fire Service. He later honoured him with an award of recognition. By Mikail Ibrahim Fagachi
