Katsina's CCT Programme Aids 3,000 Low-Income Families
On September 16, 2026, Alhaji Aminu Alhassan Faskari, the Katsina state coordinator of the National Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) programme, announced that 3,000 low-income households in Katsina state have benefited from the CCT programme. This announcement was made during the programme's flag-off in Kaita local government area, where over 300 beneficiaries received cash tokens intended to enhance their economic value and social status.
Faskari emphasized that the programme is implemented nationwide without political or tribal bias, aiming to uplift Nigerians whose incomes are below average due to current global economic challenges. He urged beneficiaries to use the funds to improve their livelihoods.
The CCT programme is set to benefit over 60,000 individuals from Katsina state and will be executed in three phases. Faskari expressed gratitude to Governor Umar Dikko Radda for his support in ensuring the programme's efficiency.
Hon. Bello Yandaki, represented by Alhaji Jamilu Sani Dankama, also thanked the federal government for initiating this supportive programme.
