The Kaduna state government has reunited thirty-nine children previously detained by the Federal Government with their families.
In a brief ceremony at the “Children’s Homes” along Katuru Road in Kaduna, each child received N100,000 and an Itel A18s smartphone from the state government.
Governor Uba Sani pledged to support the children as they reintegrate into society, vowing to provide rehabilitation and empowerment opportunities to encourage them to become responsible, law-abiding citizens.
Speaking on behalf of the governor, the Secretary to the Kaduna State Government, Dr. Abdulkadir Muazu Meyere, mentioned that the governor instructed him to collect credentials from those who had completed their tertiary education.
“The Governor promised that some of them will receive start-up capital for trading, others will receive skills training, and some will be offered employment,” Meyere said.
