The lawmaker, who was elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2023 general elections, also gave N100m to empower 2000 women in the two local government areas.
He further distributed 50 water pumps as well as 50 2.5KVA power generators to farmers and mosques in the two areas. He also distributed 500 uniforms and 5,000 exercise books to primary school pupils.
Speaking while handing over the items to the beneficiaries at Yabo town on Monday, Yusuf said the gesture was part of his campaign promises to his constituents.
“During my campaigns, I promised our people a positive change because Yabo-Shagari had been under-represented at the green chamber for so many years.
“So what we are witnessing today is just the beginning of so many good things that are on the way,” he said
According to him, each of the 2000 women would receive N50,000; and another set of 50 women would get a deep freezer each.
“I also made a case for our electricity supply at the plenary, this is because Yabo-Shagari have not been getting light for about two years now.
“I promise you that, our light will be restored very soon,” he assured.
