"This is the very reason why it was easy for me to continue where my late father stopped. As you all know, this is not the first time we have embarked on this kind a Program.  "My late father won his election based on three campaign promises namely; Security, Education and Empowerment. And he made tremendous achievements in fullfiment of his campaign promises as evident in the construction of school infrastructure, purchase of security vehicles and gadgets for various security outfits in the Constituency as well as empowering women and youths.  "I have promised to continue where my late father stopped so as to have the Constituency of his dream fullfilled". Faisal posited that the target on women and children for the empowerment programs was deliberate. According to him, "The Youths (being leaders of tomorrow), must be empowered to enable them build themselves economically and placed them in the right position to face their tomorrow. "This is necessary in order to remove them from negative influences like anti social groups, drugs and alcoholism, low self-esteem and boredom.  "Women on the hand play a critical role by inculcating the right values in children and by so doing, help in establishing responsible families and by extension a responsible society.  Hajiya Halima Yayaha, Women leader "Women therefore, needs to be empowered too to ensure the stability of both their mind and their economies". "Therefore, our Empowerment programs are aways geared toward ensuring the building of a vibrant, lawful and healthy society", he said. In the light of the above, Faisal urged the beneficiaries to ensure the judicious use of the items received.
