In a heart-stopping display of compassion and leadership, Hon. Fatsuma Talba, Member representing Nangere/Potiskum Federal Constituency, has thrown a lifeline to the desperate flood victims in Nangere and Potiskum Local Government Areas. As the ravaging waters recede, leaving behind a trail of destruction and despair, Hon. Talba’s generous donation has brought a glimmer of hope to the affected communities.
The devastating flood disaster had left the victims on the brink of collapse, with many facing starvation, homelessness, and disease. But Hon. Talba’s timely intervention has changed the narrative, providing a safety net for the most vulnerable. Her donation of food, non-food items, and cash has been a godsend, restoring dignity and hope to the affected families.
The sheer scale of the donation is a testament to Hon. Talba’s commitment to her constituents. 170 bags of rice, 80 cartons of pasta, 170 bags of grains, and 10 cartons of vegetable oil will feed the hungry and nourish the malnourished. 170 blankets, 100 children’s wear, 170 mats, 80 women’s wrappers, and drugs will provide comfort and warmth to those who have lost everything. And the 2 million Naira cash assistance will empower the victims to rebuild their shattered lives.
In this darkest of hours, Hon. Talba’s selfless act has shone a light of hope. Her leadership and compassion have inspired a sense of resilience and determination among the affected communities. As they begin to rebuild their lives, they will never forget the heroic donation that saved them from the abyss.
Hon. Talba’s donation is more than just a gesture of kindness – it’s a beacon of hope in the midst of devastation. It’s a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there are still heroes among us, willing to go the extra mile to save others.
