More than 1,000 impoverished Muslims and Islamic institutions have received grain distributions from the Church of Christ Evangelical and Life Intercessory Ministry in Sabon Tasha, Chikun Local Government Area, Kaduna State.
Pastor Yohanna Buru, the church’s general overseer, stated that the gesture also aimed to promote religious tolerance and peaceful cooperation among locals.
“This gesture is also in appreciation of Hajiya Ramatu Tijjani, a Muslim woman who regularly supports our widows and orphans with food, cash, and clothing during Christian festivities like Christmas, New Year, and Easter,” Pastor Buru said as the Church Donates grains to Muslims.
Pastor Buru claims that for the past 19 years, the church has been providing impoverished Muslims in five northern states with basic products such as rice and maize.
“We are targeting over 1,000 poor Muslims this year and have purchased 30 bags of maize and millet to distribute, starting today,” Pastor Buru shared.
The program, which has been implemented in five northern states for 19 years, keeps fostering understanding and solidarity in the area.
