The Federal Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs has partnered with Beautiful Gate Handicapped People's Centre, Jos, to distribute 100 tricycles to people with special needs in Kano State. 

The distribution ceremony was held in Kofar Mata Quarters, with the Kano State Commissioner of Science and Technology, Hon. Yusuf Kofar Mata, commending the effort and generosity of the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs, Alhaji Adamu Kofar Mata.

The tricycles were distributed under the Kofar Mata Development Association, with the beneficiaries selected from Kofar Mata and its environs. Hon. Yusuf Kofar Mata expressed gratitude on behalf of the community, hoping that others would continue to support the development of their society.

Sandra Yilgwan, Media Director of Beautiful Gate Handicapped People's Centre, Jos, explained that the centre partnered with the Permanent Secretary to provide mobility aids to people with disabilities. 

The tricycles, produced in their office in Jos, cost approximately N160,000 each and were distributed free of charge to the beneficiaries.

The centre's aim is to provide mobility, a basic necessity for people with special needs, enabling them to move around easily. Beautiful Gate Handicapped People's Centre is a Non-Governmental Organisation with a Christian background but operates without discrimination, having distributed over 40,000 tricycles free of charge to people in need.

The partnership between the Ministry and Beautiful Gate Handicapped People's Centre has brought joy to many people with special needs in Kano State. The gesture demonstrates the importance of collaboration and support for vulnerable members of society.

The distribution of tricycles is a significant step towards empowering people with special needs, providing them with increased mobility and independence. Beautiful Gate Handicapped People's Centre's commitment to supporting people with disabilities is commendable, and their efforts are making a positive impact in the lives of many.
