Hon. Tolulope Akande-Sadipe representing Oluyole Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Abuja has distributed empowerment items to her constituents.
The items donated to alleviate poverty in her constituency include tricycles, motorbikes, refrigerators, among others.
Speaking after the empowerment programme, Akande-Sadipe explained that the items given were based on the identified need gaps within her constituency in a bid to create wealth, adding that empowering her constituents gives her joy.
According to her, the empowerment programme rounds off her one-week fraternisation with members of her constituency.
She said that the empowerment programme was a fall out of her long-time search to alleviate poverty in her constituency, adding that the end result of coronavirus required constant attention of lawmakers in their constituencies.
Akande-Sadipe reiterated that as a representative of the people, she would not rest on her oars, in providing solutions to the needs of her constituency through her constituency office.
“The beneficiaries of the empowerment programme today were carefully selected from all the wards. We would ensure we reach out to as many as we can”, she said.
The lawmaker also commissioned some constituency projects during the empowerment event.
Some of the projects commissioned include Bore-hole Project in Olubi Village, a block of two classrooms at St. Thomas Primary School, Longe village and Ifelodun Primary School, Muslim.
