Senator Adetokunbo Abiru, representing Lagos East Senatorial District, has distributed food packs to over 10,000 households across the 16 Local Government Areas, LGAs, and Local Council Development Areas, LCDAs, in preparation for the Christmas and year-end celebrations.
The distribution exercise took place simultaneously in the district’s main five local government areas: Ibeju-Lekki, Kosofe, Epe, Somolu, and Ikorodu.
Senator Abiru distributed items at the Constituency Office in Ikorodu, stating that he aimed to reach out to his constituents, especially the less privileged, in a spirit of love, compassion, and generosity.
The initiative reflects the diversity of the district, impacting all demographics, including the vulnerable. Beneficiaries include Christians and Muslims, party leaders and members, youths, students, canvassers, women, persons living with disabilities, artisans, the aged, and randomly selected constituents who were shortlisted from online nominations and other stakeholders contributing to the district’s growth.
According to Senator Abiru, “This event is a reflection of our shared values and commitment to uplifting many of our people who are going through tough times at this very challenging period.
“In alignment with my mantra of Greater Good to the Larger Number, we are ensuring, as our custom is, that no one is left behind during this festive season.
“This equity, fair and inclusive processes were followed to give a sense of belonging to all segments of our society, thereby deepening harmony and respect that bind us together as one community,” the lawmaker, who chairs the Senate Committee on Banking, Insurance and other Financial Institutions in the National Assembly added.
Abiru continued, “This gesture is also in support of the expectations of President Bola Tinubu, GCFR, from all elected public officials to provide succour and comfort for our people, particularly the vulnerable members of the society, who are largely impacted by the fall-outs of bold economic reforms and policy decisions, (Fuel subsidy removal, convergence of exchanges rates, Tax reforms), of the current administration in repositioning this country for greatness”
He, therefore, called on his constituents and all Nigerians to support the administration of President Tinubu, in its quest to restore the nation to the path of sustainable growth and development.
