Dahir Muhammad Hashim Foundation launches back-to-school initiative

A Dahir Muhammad Hashim Foundation has launched a back-to-school initiative aimed at supporting 100 primary school pupils across Dala Local Government area, Kano State.

Speaking on Sunday, the promoter of the Foundation and Kano ACRESAL Project Coordinator, Dr. Dahir Muhammad Hashim, emphasized the importance of education in building a strong society.

 “We all know that education is the backbone of a society,” he said.

“If we want to build human beings, we must provide them with education. Knowledge is what has made me who I am today. I want these children to have a sound education so they can become better than all of us.”

SolaceBase reports that Dr. Hashim expressed gratitude to former Kano State Governor, Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, for sponsoring his education during his second term in office as governor.

“I want these children to be proud of me for what I have done for them, just as I am proud to be a beneficiary of the Kwankwaso scholarship program,” he added.

This is the first phase of the initiative, and Dr Hashim plans to continue it annually in Dala Local Government Area.

The foundation enrolled all 100 children in primary schools and provided them with books, bags, and uniforms.

Dr. Hashim also announced plans to train media professionals in Dala on effective reporting techniques.

He thanked all those who contributed to the initiative and expressed hope to see some of the children become successful professionals in the future.

On his part, the education secretary of Dala Local Government, Malam Bala, also expressed gratitude to Dr. Hashim for his support to the less privileged children in the area.

He urged him to continue his good work and assured him that the 100 children would receive the necessary attention and education in the schools where they were enrolled.

In a remark, a member of the Kano House of Assembly, Sarki Aliyu Danaiji, congratulated Dala Local Government residents for having Dr. Dahiru as their son.

He praised Dr. Hashim’s dedication to improving people’s lives and commended the Dala Local Government Chairman of the NNPP, Alh Dayyabu Ahamad Mai Turare, for his support.

“I congratulate the people of Dala for having someone who cares deeply about their welfare. While I’m curious about how Hashim transitioned into politics, I know him to be dedicated to improving people’s lives.”
