Mustapha Kukawa Sponsors Mass Wedding for Ten Couples

Mustapha Kukawa, the Chairman of Kukawa Local Government Area in Borno State, sponsored a mass wedding for ten vulnerable couples from the Baga and Doro communities. The Kukawa Local Government media team stated that all necessary wedding requirements, including dowry, Waliyyi arrangements, kolanuts, sweets, and dues, were provided.

This mass wedding, referred to as Fatiha, is the first of its kind in recent times in Borno State, with plans for a second phase to follow. The initiative, which aligns with Islamic injunctions, aims to promote morality and prevent social vices among the youth.

A colorful Walima was organized in the evening to celebrate the event, attended by community members, local government officials, traditional leaders, and Ulamas. The parents and family members of the couples expressed gratitude to the Chairman for his efforts in protecting the dignity of their children.
