Outrage As Nigerian Senator Distributes Burial Materials To Constituents (Photo)

In a move that has raised eyebrows, Senator Rufai Hanga, representing Kano Central Senatorial District, has distributed 5,000 white pieces of cloth and clay pots to his constituents as burial materials for their loved ones.

This unusual constituency project has sparked controversy, with many questioning the priority of such an initiative.

According to a post shared by @VoiceofHausa, a popular Hausa platform, the move by Senator Rufai Hanga was intended to support the people of his senatorial district, which comprises 15 local government areas in their burial engagements. However, critics have pointed out that such resources could be better allocated towards more pressing needs, such as healthcare and infrastructure development.

However, many have expressed disappointment and frustration, citing the need for more meaningful and impactful projects that address the pressing challenges facing the community.
