Alhaji Nasiru Haladu Danu through the Nasiru Danu Foundation, on Saturday, donated 500 cartons of noodles to the students of University of Abuja (UNIABUJA).

The foundation had previously donated 500 cartoons of noodles to the students of Federal University, Dutse.

The philanthropist, while handing over the noddles to the Vice-Chancellor of UNIABUJA, AbdulRasheed Na’Allah, at the Senate Chamber of the university, promised to continue donating food items to students of the university for the next 25 days, in the spirit of giving to support indigent students during the ongoing Ramadan.

He said: “Our intention when we came here was to donate 500 packages for 500 students, but when we saw the development of the university as a result of the commitment of the Vice Chancellor, I therefore spoke with my partners. We have decided to feed 300 students for the next 25 days, so every day, we’re going to agree on the figures to donate.

“We have decided to do a special package for federal universities. The reason why we chose these universities is that these are where children of the downtrodden who need this support are. We started with Federal University, Dutse.”

Danu said giving to society is an obligation clearly stated in Islam, which he believes in and is committed to seeing lives touched.

He stated that the Month of Ramadan has necessitated sharing food and water, especially with the challenges being faced by many in Nigeria.

“As a Muslim, we’re in the Holy Month of Ramadan, and normally even without hunger, it’s time we should try to share food and water, since we know the condition we are in, it’s encouraging. It’s good work we are doing at the foundation.

“In Islam, we have what’s called Zakat, whatever God has given to you, it’s a platform for you to touch lives,” he said.
