“These beneficiaries were carefully selected from the wards across Tarauni Local Government Area to ensure equitable distribution of the empowerment initiative,” Sule said.
He said the gesture was intended to ease transportation and movement for party activists, particularly in carrying out community and party-related activities across Tarauni Local Government Area.
“The programme was designed to enable beneficiaries to establish sustainable means of livelihood while giving constituents the opportunity to enjoy the dividends of democracy,” the lawmaker said.
Sule said the initiative was also introduced in recognition of the contributions of party activists and APC leaders to strengthening the party and taking its messages to the people.
He said thousands of constituents had benefited from various empowerment programmes since he assumed office, adding that additional empowerment packages would be provided to 300 women and youths in the coming weeks.
The lawmaker said his interventions had included cash empowerment ranging from N50,000 to N1m, as well as the distribution of cars, motorcycles and other support aimed at improving the standard of living of constituents.
