During the official flag-off ceremony at the Kabir Aliyu Maska Hall on Monday, Governor Radda revealed that 550 victims of armed banditry received N150,000 each, totaling N82.5 million. Additionally, 3,876 COVID-19 victims were granted N100,000 each, amounting to N387.6 million. This brings the total disbursement to N470 million, excluding the expenses incurred for training beneficiaries across Katsina's 34 Local Government Areas (LGAs).

Governor Radda highlighted that this program fulfills a campaign promise made during the January 2023 BBC Governorship debate, demonstrating his commitment to empowering those affected by banditry and COVID-19, with a particular focus on women and girls impacted by these challenges.

At the event, Governor Radda commended the Katsina State Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development, as well as the State's House of Assembly, for their role in selecting and training the beneficiaries.

Professor Ahmad Muhammad Bakori, the Commissioner of the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development, expressed gratitude to the Governor and R.H. Equipt for their support towards the program.

Representing R.H. Equipt, Professor Muhammad Yusuf Dandume reaffirmed their dedication to collaborating with the Katsina State Government to ensure the success of this program.
