Zamfara State government has promised to sponsor the education and other needs of a six-year-old boy whose video was trending on social media, where he expressed his grief over the killing of his father claiming he will take revenge.
A statement by the Public Relations Officer of the Ministry of Women affairs, Children and Social Development, Suleiman Isah in Gusau on Thursday, said the Commissioner for Women affairs, Children and Social Development, Dr. Nafisa Maraduna, stated this while receiving the child and his mother in her office.
The commissioner said she was first directed by the wife of the state governor, Hajiya Huriya Lawal, to find out the boy and his mother so that the state government can support them for better living and necessary counseling.
“We have supported the child’s mother with capital to start a business to ease her pain.”
The statement said the boy and his mother thanked the governor’s wife for the kind gesture, and the mother added that she will also assist in counseling the child.
