Nigerians are currently reacting to a video of Kano state gov, Abba Yusuf, giving N20,000 startup capital to 500 kids as part of the Children’s Day celebration.
The Senior Special Assistant on Digital Media to the state governor, Kwankwason Tuwita, disclosed this via his X handle.
He wrote
‘’In commemoration of this year’s International Children’s day, Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf empowered 500 children with a start-up capital of N20,000 each, in order to start mini businesses.”
Nigerians are currently reacting to the post with some accusing the governor of weaponizing poverty while others wondered why the governor was empowering children.

crownsbyaurelia When they run out of ideas, they start sharing money. Empower their parents and educate the children. This country tire me
gangn.am123 U people must have silly things to say about the North, meanwhile ur governors in the south can’t provide simple basic amenities , atleast him share money, y’all leaving in abject poverty, hook up n yahoo
abdallah_b When u see any post about the north on this page, just know that it’s not something good. I don’t understand the obsession
iam_bmodel I wonder the business he wants them to start with 2Ok, even though they are children. I have been cracking my head to know any mini business 20k can start. Maybe pepper or chewing gum business
