Governor Yusuf said the defection showed that his administration’s programmes and policies over the past two years were making real impacts.

He recalled that during the 2023 campaign, he visited all 44 local government areas, including Dawakin Tofa, and promised to bring the dividends of democracy to every part of the state.

“Dawakin Tofa is a crucial local government in our struggle, and I am the happiest person for this massive defection from the APC to the NNPP,” he declared.

He thanked the NNPP’s National Leader, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, who also expressed happiness over the development.

The Governor mentioned some achievements in Dawakin Tofa, such as completing the five-kilometer road abandoned by the previous administration. He also promised to build a new school in the area.

He assured the new members that they would be fully integrated into the party without discrimination, warned against intimidation, and pledged to deliver more dividends of democracy.

Governor Yusuf also announced plans for a familiarization tour ahead of the 2027 general elections. He said there would be a policy change for the Dawanau International Market, which would be turned into an agency with a Managing Director and board for better management.

He praised the Local Government Chairman for generating N500 million internally and using it for projects, and promised to address all complaints raised.

Chairman of Dawakin Tofa Local Government Council, Hon. Anas Danmaliki, commended the Governor, noting that his administration completed projects in 15 primary schools and sponsored over 1,000 students in tertiary institutions.

NNPP State Chairman, Hon. Hashim Dungurawa, congratulated the defectors and said:

“God willing, just as Gwale supported you in 2023, Dawakin Tofa will do even better.”

Leader of the NNPP in Dawakin Tofa and Special Adviser on Publicity, Alhaji Ahmad Muhammad Speaker, said some of the defectors joined voluntarily and urged the government to complete abandoned projects in Dawanau and Tumfafi wards.

Representatives of the defectors, including Hon. Nura Tumfafi, Hon.

Disqualified Big Brother Naija season 10 housemate Faith has partnered with the Lagos Food Bank Initiative to support vulnerable families in Lagos.

The outreach programme, part of the Temporary Emergency Food Assistance Program, aims to provide relief for families struggling with hunger and the cost-of-living crisis.

According to a tweet via Lagos Food Bank’s page, it reads, “Big Brother changed his life, now he’s choosing to change the world. Faith Adewale is not just using his voice; he’s using his platform to give back.”

Faith had previously volunteered with LFBI’s #NUMEPlan, a program focused on treating and feeding malnourished children.

“After volunteering at Lagos Food Bank under the #NUMEPLAN program, where malnourished children are treated and fed, he made a promise to return and do more.

“On Wednesday, 15th October, he’s keeping that promise as he will be joining us at the Food Bank Warehouse for an impactful TEFAP Program to serve vulnerable families. This isn’t just an outreach, it’s a movement of love, hope, and action”, the statement reads.

This new initiative showcases Faith’s commitment to using his platform for purpose-driven work and giving back to the community.

The Lagos Food Bank Initiative is also collaborating with five outstanding NGOs to strengthen communities and reduce food insecurity across Nigeria.

“Together, we’re making a real difference in the fight against hunger. This collaboration strengthens communities and helps reduce food insecurity across Nigeria.

“Nigeria faces a paradox of food surplus and widespread hunger. Our mission is to bridge that gap to ensure no one goes hungry while food goes to waste,” the statement read.

“Our target group in this program is the very needy cases of persons who are aged, disabled, patients of diet-related diseases, or beneficiaries severely affected by the negative effects of the cost-of-living crisis.

“The agricultural landscape in Nigeria presents a complex challenge, with significant food surplus coexisting alongside widespread hunger and food insecurity.

“Despite being a prominent agricultural producer, the nation grapples with food loss and waste across the supply chain, leading to economic losses, environmental degradation, and inadequate access to nourishing sustenance for many Nigerians”, the statement concluded.

Since his disqualification, Faith has spoken openly about his journey, revealing that he took a N5 million loan to participate in the show, an experience he described as “transformational.”
