 Kebbi Govt Donates 10 Hilux Vehicles to Boost Security on Sokoto–Badagry Super Highway  The Kebbi State Government has handed over 10 brand-new Hilux vehicles to the Federal Ministry of Works to strengthen security for personnel working on the Sokoto–Badagry Super Highway project. The vehicles were formally received by the Minister of State for Works, Bello Muhammad Goronyo, who praised Kebbi State Governor, Dr. Nasiru Idris (Kauran Gwandu), for the donation. Goronyo described the gesture as a clear demonstration of the state government’s commitment to protecting workers and contractors on the strategic highway corridor. He explained that the vehicles will be deployed exclusively to security operatives providing cover for construction teams along the section of the super highway passing through Kebbi State.

V.P. OSINBAJO AND HIS WIFE ATTENDS THE NORTH EAST CHILDREN'S LEARNING CENTRE'S 5TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY. (PHOTOS).#PRESS RELEASE.


Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Mrs. Dolapo Osinbajo attends the North East Children's Learning Centre's 5th Year Anniversary at the NAF Centre in Jabi, Abuja.


As I stood on stage with Saje, and Aisha with @dolapoosinbajo attempting to solve a puzzle together, I couldn't help but appreciate and be inspired by how these kids have turned trauma to triumph.

About 10,000 other children, like Saje, Aisha , and Kaltum orphaned or displaced by the Boko Haram insurgency, have benefited immensely from the excellent work of all stakeholders at the North East Children’s Trust (NECT) @nectngr Learning Centre; a private sector-led and charity educational centre we envisioned in 2016, and which took off a year later in Maiduguri.

For five years, these kids have journeyed from the trauma of insurgency and the cusp of hopelessness to an assurance of lofty aspirations. The evidence of progress was palpable as they welcomed us into their home to celebrate 5 years of brewing inspiring dreams, potentials and great things. In these 5 years, the NECT Learning Centre has practically become a place that defies despondency, displacement and despair to drive dreams for these kids.

While I thank the NECT board, led by Mr. Jim Ovia, the management, and all who have contributed to the centre’s development, especially the Borno State government, these kids with their teachers have become the real heroes of this story.

I celebrate them hugely.
