It could be recalled that Hon. Alhassan had out of the #40million constituency project fund given to them by Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, awarded scholarship to indigene students studying at various schools.

Speaking while presenting the empowerment items for onward distribution to the beneficiaries, Hon. Alhassan Hammajoda said that the empowerment items have been provided in order to distribute them to his electorate, explaining that the reason behind it is to make his electorate become self reliant.

He appealed to those that benefited to judiciously utilise the items for the purpose intended and in order to improve their living standard and that of their families, and to those that could not get to wait as their time is coming.
Hon. Alhassan Hammajoda, applauded Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri, for giving #40million to every member so as to execute constituency project for their electorate, expressing optimism that the economy will improve so that the executive arm will continue to give them money to continue to provide dividends of democracy.
