Abba Anwar, the Chief Press Secretary to Abdullahi Ganduje, Governor of Kano State, says the state government would pay N30million as dowry for 1,500 brides during a mass wedding scheduled for Sunday.
Anwar said the couples passed through different stages of screening before they got to the final wedding stage. He said: “While dowry would be paid, it is also part of the magnanimous engagement by the state government that complete sets of beds, side mirrors, wardrobes and mattresses would all be provided for each couple.“New clothing materials, popularly called ‘Shadda’ would be provided for all the would-be husbands, so that they can appear as happily wedded grooms, showcasing their happiness to families, friends and well wishers.

GovUmarGanduje See them, what is the difference between these people and suicide bomber's?
GovUmarGanduje This is simply unsustainable human breeding program. Even more humane thoughts are put into the running of poultries
GovUmarGanduje This is all in an attempt for Mass production of human beings for more Jihadists for bokoharam
GovUmarGanduje This is corruption of the highest order. Would that solve the economy insecurity the people are facing or put an end to the socio-economic and political problems that has been a burden to the people? Is like the governor didn't even know the real problem in the state.
GovUmarGanduje After the wedding we expect the husband might learn a lot about matrimonial hope and pray that God will bless the couples and stay permanently.
GovUmarGanduje You see a shortsighted government. Why not provide them with jobs they can depend on to sustain their newly formed families?
GovUmarGanduje This is a typical example of a government that doesn't have vision. Can they spend such amount in empowering the people? No!!! How will this enhance the economy? Of what purpose is the government trying to achieve. All is to achieve political selfish interest.
GovUmarGanduje This is women empowerment .... Nigeria i hail thee
GovUmarGanduje That is not the business of reasonable government, provide jobs.

GovUmarGanduje Wtf
GovUmarGanduje They r not impressed with no of voters during the last presidential election so this is the plan. When the 1500 brides starts giving birth before 2027 at least, each of them would have laid like 9children each then multiply 9 by 1500+rigged,Ganduje would have enough vote s by den
GovUmarGanduje I haven’t seen a stupider set of people than these people... My one question to GOD... “Must We be called One Nigeria?”... The dumbest thing I’ve seen in My Life... To birth more rug rats roaming the streets of the country... GOD why GOD why?!!!
GovUmarGanduje The rest of the state to copy from kano state government this is part of next level.
GovUmarGanduje kudos to kano state government
GovUmarGanduje This is what kind of project, the almajiris there are still not enough
GovUmarGanduje 20000naira per bride? They're this cheap? Little wonder!
GovUmarGanduje What about the millions of children out of school? Or the dilapidated govt. schools in Kano?
GovUmarGanduje This is 19th century... doesn't Islam grow with the times?
GovUmarGanduje Clueless government.
GovUmarGanduje Election settlement
GovUmarGanduje The hearts natives called Nigeria, 1914 was scam the Brits used. Build north politically & territorially. Emmigrants from Niger, chad or Sudan, pregnant en-masse-BH specialty, govt will fund more almajirids. Their leaders pretend they don’t no the route of population explosions.
GovUmarGanduje Politicians..........hmmmmmm time will tell ...no be Nigeria...okay..oooo..
GovUmarGanduje But for the yeye government to encourage them to go to school is wahala. Useless people
GovUmarGanduje N30m dowry for 1,500 brides.... The Kano State govt should use that sum and equip schools in rural areas.
GovUmarGanduje U dey pay dowry for Western nd Eastern States in this Nigeria or we never ask our governors ni Same Niger diff perspectives..they wil paid dowry,feeds them yet kept growing our population like.. funny enough they wil sti determined our president based on illiterate population
GovUmarGanduje What is the underlying agenda that propels governors in the north to organize state-sponsors weddings for their citizens especially as there is no guarantee that the new families will be self-sustainable in the face of the glaring poverty? Has anyone bothered to ask?
GovUmarGanduje Allah yabada zamn lafiya
GovUmarGanduje When structure a foundation with fraud what do expect. The foundation of nigeria is structured in a fraudulent constitution the out come is abject poverty. The north hate other regions progress
GovUmarGanduje If only this much energy could be put into empowering these women independently.
GovUmarGanduje The north is definitely the weakest link in this union.
GovUmarGanduje More uneducated children to litter d street selling pure water,sugar cane,shoe mender,etc?u are Solomon indeed.
GovUmarGanduje The money comes to the state government free na, this is what they use our oil money for, after all allocations comes to them free of charge
GovUmarGanduje Wow...so innovative 😒
GovUmarGanduje wtf!
GovUmarGanduje What was the motive behind this? Shortage of almajiris?
GovUmarGanduje Misplaced priorities
GovUmarGanduje Shame
GovUmarGanduje So, in this mordern age, as civilised as the world has become; Marriage has become a developmental policy in KanoState that gandollar has to compulsorily get 1,500 couples married and spend N30m State Funds as Dowry.
GovUmarGanduje Shocking mentality! People that clearly cannot afford to raise a family and the state decides to pay dowry for them and guess what? With tax payers' money!!! So what happens when they get married and procreate without being able to cater for them? More social vices!!! Tufiakwa!
GovUmarGanduje This is wrong! After the wedding then what? Will govt still take care of them?
GovUmarGanduje This is the type of handout the northern elite engage in. They refuse, oppose anyone that seek education for their people, knowing that educated soul is free from slavery.
Many times, what makes your people happy is not the right thing, but politics must happen. This is misplaced priority
GovUmarGanduje What would be Kano State gain? More Almajiri and VVF wife would left to suffer.
GovUmarGanduje And you say they don't know what they are doing ? This is why they want their people yo remain in the dark
