 Kano State Approves N1.5 Billion for Mass Wedding of 3,000 Couples


The Kano State Government has earmarked N1.5 billion for a forthcoming mass wedding programme targeting 3,000 beneficiaries, officials announced on Monday.


Commander-General of the Kano State Hisbah Board, Sheikh Ibrahim Daurawa, disclosed the funding while briefing journalists on preparations for the event. 


“The Kano State Government is to spend N1.5bn on the entire mass wedding programme which will soon be conducted in the state,” Daurawa said.


According to him, the allocation will cover furniture, food items, dowry, clothing materials for the couples, and a N100,000 capital grant to each bride, among other expenses.


The Hisbah Board, in collaboration with the State Ministry of Health, has already commenced mandatory medical screening for prospective couples to determine their health status. The screenings include tests for hepatitis, pregnancy, HIV, genotype, and other sexually transmitted diseases.


Daurawa revealed that no fewer than 5,000 people applied for the programme, out of which 3,000 will be selected following the completion of the medical exercise.


He commended Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf for initiating the programme and stated that the governor is expected to announce the date for the mass wedding soon.


The medical screening began on Monday, May 8, 2026, involving prospective couples from 24 of the state’s 44 local government areas.
