Nawa

7 thousand goats? Did they clear all the goats in Kano? Peppersoup don yapa be dat. But they don't drink beer so that's a waste of good meat.

The governor is a fool. This is what he considers empowerment. Can he empower his wife or daughters with just three goats or any number of goats for that matter? So why does he think it is the good women of Kano who needs goats as empowerment?

I forgot! They do mass weddings for intending couples in Kano. Maybe they couldn't find enough husbands and decided to use goats as substitutes.

You gave someone a headache and call it empowerment.

How much be one goat?

Great initiative.

One male goat to two female goats. Results should start coming up in less than one year. With seriousness and commitment, each woman should see their goats multiply speedily and the business aspect bring success.

Kano citizens should begin to experience sufficiency with such initiatives soon.

Added to that, it is hoped that cows and rams are given to farmers to grow and making the livestock business improve in the state.

I have mixed feelings about that.

Empowerment of three goats

Each goat costs approximately #321,318.

Dont you love Nigeria?

Who will feed the goats?

Kano that is parading more than 4million out of school children roaming the street daily begging for food

Above is just my personal opinion

Nigerians deserve everything thrown at them by their leaders.

As petty as the empowerment might look, it's a good one. Those condemning such will still come here to lament the high cost of meat in the market.

Empowerment kwa.

In the northern part of our country, goats are considered valuable, income-generating assets. Therefore, it’s understandable why the governor might choose to distribute them as a means of empowerment. By providing goats to these women, they are being equipped with a sustainable source of income. Goats can be used for milk, meat, and breeding, which can significantly improve their livelihoods. With proper training and , this initiative has the potential to foster long-term economic growth and financial independence for the beneficiaries!

Goats are to be fed or reared by the farmers. What should be your concern is the farmers, rather than Marie wealth out of it, choose to eat their goats, which now are their seed.

So each woman will 3 goats each and you have empowered them ba?

I have said any politician who assumed office and chse revenge or fighting everyone as his oor her priority will ends up like obaseki now imagine the governor some fools were celebrating given 3 goats as empowerment.

Assuming each goat was bought at an outrageous price of 100,000 naira.

7158 × 100,000= 715,800,000 naira.

How come 2.3 billion naira was spent.

Better Cashout for the governor and co
