Ahmadu Umaru was elated after enrolling in a healthcare intervention programme of the Jigawa State Government in June.
Mr Umaru and others selected from poor nomad settlements in Buji Local Government Area converged at the primary healthcare facility at the council headquarters in Buji town to enrol in the programme. He said being free from out-of-pocket spending would allow him to attend to other needs.
“I am delighted to be selected as beneficiary because I will no longer have to sell my livestock to finance my medication. We thank Governor Umar Namadi. May Allah protect him against his enemies,” Mr Umaru told PREMIUM TIMES.
