In the spirit of Christmas, the Caleb Danladi Foundation, a non-governmental organization, distributed food items and textile materials to over 1,000 people in Jaba Local Government Area of Kaduna. This annual event aims to give beneficiaries a sense of belonging and ease during the Christmas celebration.
The items, worth millions of naira, were distributed to widows, orphans, and the less privileged across Jaba Local Government Area, providing them with succor during the Christmas and New Year celebrations.
According to Captain Caleb Danladi Bako, founder of the foundation, this gesture complements government efforts in reducing economic hardship faced by the people. Captain Danladi has made it a duty to celebrate Christmas with the downtrodden in Jaba Local Government Area by supporting them financially and materially.
The foundation has also concluded arrangements to enroll retired clergies in Jaba Local Government Area into the Kaduna State Health Insurance Scheme, in addition to the over 200 less privileged individuals already registered earlier this year.
The ongoing construction of the Dorcas Danladi Memorial Skill Acquisition Centre in Sambang Gida, facilitated by the foundation, is expected to be completed and commissioned early next year. The centre will provide training for women and youth on various skills and crafts.
Captain Danladi expressed satisfaction with the turnout of people at the event and described the presence of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and the Jama’atu Nasril Islam (JNI) as a testament to the peace and tranquility enjoyed in Jaba Local Government Area.
The Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Kwoi, Rev. Paul Samuel Zamani, and the Secretary of ECWA Kwoi, DCC, Reverend Galadima Auta Yakubu, commended the founder of the Caleb Danladi Foundation for his concern and care for the less privileged in the area. They described the distribution of food items as timely and urged other wealthy individuals to emulate the kind gesture of the foundation.
Stakeholders at the event, including traditional rulers and religious leaders, praised the Caleb Danladi Foundation’s commitment to providing social services to the people, particularly the less privileged, and described it as worthy of emulation.
