N-HYPPADEC HANDS OVER NEWLY CONSTRUCTED CLASSROOMS, PUBLIC TOILET IN BIDA, SUPPORTS ETSU NUPE’S FREE CATARACT SURGICAL OUTREACH WITH N2 MILLION.

The National Hydroelectric Power Producing Areas Development Commission (N-HYPPADEC) has handed over a newly constructed block of three classrooms to the management of Ndazabo Primary School, Bida, as well as a public toilet facility to the Ndazabo community.

The projects, constructed by the commission, were handed over to the school management and community members by the Managing Director of N-HYPPADEC, Alhaji Abubakar Sadiq Yelwa, alongside the Niger State Coordinator and the Bida Area Officer on Wednesday.

Speaking during the event, Alhaji Yelwa urged the school authorities and the benefiting community to make judicious use of the facilities, assuring them that more interventions would be provided by the commission.

In his response, the community head of Ndazabo, Sheikh Khalifa Fogun, appreciated N-HYPPADEC's intervention and pledged that the community would safeguard the facilities.

Shortly after the handover ceremony, the N-HYPPADEC team proceeded to the palace of the Etsu Nupe, His Royal Highness, Alhaji Yahaya Abubakar, CFR, to participate in the free cataract surgical outreach sponsored by the Etsu Yahaya Abubakar Foundation in collaboration with the Near Foundation Abuja, and the Federal Medical Centre, Bida.

The outreach includes the screening of patients, distribution of eyeglasses and drugs, as well as cataract surgeries for beneficiaries.

Speaking at the event, the Managing Director extolled the Etsu Nupe, Alhaji Yahaya Abubakar, acknowledging his support and humanitarian services to people within and outside Niger State.

Alhaji Yelwa subsequently presented a cash donation of N2 million on behalf of N-HYPPADEC in support of the foundation’s humanitarian outreach.
