 Katsina State Governor Radda Raises Financial Support for 560 Women by 100%


Katsina State Governor Dikko Umaru Radda has provided an additional ₦5.6 million to 560 women under a grassroots empowerment initiative. 

The Funtua initiative, organised by KTIRS Chairman Isiyaku Mohammed, saw Governor Radda raise it by 100 per cent from N10, 000 to N20,000 each, totalling ₦11.2 million.


Governor Radda commended the KTIRS Chairman for his integrity, honesty and dedication to public service, noting that he had known him for over 30 years.


"Having known him for more than three decades, I can attest to his integrity and commitment. The achievements recorded by KTIRS in revenue generation and the recovery of outstanding government revenues running into billions of naira are highly commendable," he said.


The Governor also praised the Service's leadership and personnel for strengthening the state's revenue base, urging them to sustain their professionalism and commitment to public service.


Radda explained that he was impressed by the support extended to the women and decided to increase the amount after observing that each beneficiary had initially received ₦10,000.


The KTIRS Chairman, Alhaji Isiyaku Mohammed, said the empowerment initiative was designed to reach communities directly through a structured polling-unit-based approach, with particular attention to women.


He explained that the first phase targeted 20 women from each polling unit, with financial assistance ranging from ₦10,000 to ₦20,000 and each exercise covering between 500 and 600 beneficiaries.


Mohammed noted that empowering women produces wider benefits for families and communities, as the support often extends to household needs and other members of society.


He disclosed that the programme was designed to be conducted at least 15 times before the elections to extend the intervention to more communities.
