Jigawa Commissioner Returns N301M Unspent Ramadan Funds

The Jigawa State Commissioner for Special Duties, Auwalu Danladi Sankara, has returned N301 million unspent funds to the state treasury following the conclusion of the 2025 Ramadan feeding programme.

The refund was made public during a state executive council meeting chaired by Governor Malam Umar Namadi.

The commendable act followed the allocation of N4.8 billion by the Jigawa State Government to the ministry for the feeding initiative, which spanned all 27 local government areas and operated around 700 feeding centres.

The programme not only provided meals to the underprivileged but also supported local farmers and businesses by sourcing food items within the state.
