Mopamuro: Fanwo Unveils NG-CARE, Restates Ododo’s Commitment To Tackling Poverty At Grassroots

LAGOS – The Commissioner for Information and Communications, Kingsley Femi Fanwo, has unveiled the Kogi State Government’s NG-CARE intervention programme in Mopamuro Local Government Area (LGA) of Kogi State, describing it as a practical demonstration of Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo’s commitment to tackling poverty and improving livelihoods at the grassroots.

Fanwo unveiled the programme at a well-attended meeting in Mopamuro, which brought together critical stakeholders, community leaders and NG-CARE coordinators from across the LGA.

He explained that NG-CARE was designed to support poor and vulnerable households while strengthening rural infrastructure and creating opportunities for sustainable livelihoods.

According to him, the programme provides cash transfers to poor households, public works opportunities for beneficiaries, Livelihood Support Grants and agricultural inputs for farmers across the Local Government Area.

According to Fanwo, communities would also identify the infrastructure projects they consider most important, which would subsequently be provided under the programme.
