Others who also commended the gesture of the ‎ Hon. Barde are the State House of Assembly member representing Kajuru constituency Hon. Uba Samuel Tanko, Chikun local government Chairmanship aspirant  Salasi Nuhu Musa and Comrade Danjuma Sarki all of whom express satisfaction with the members performance.

Speaking on the project, the sponsor, Hon. Barde who is also the minority ‎whip of the Federal House of Representative said, he felt giving knowledge will be a better source of empowerment rather than distributing motorcycles which he said most times become a liability on the beneficiaries.

“This is a generational empowerment, because with the knowledge you will acquire during this training and personal computer at your disposal, you can also become employer of labour and be self reliant.

“The world which is a global village has now gone digital, so you are being empowered to equally empower others at your own levels‎, so put in your best during the training and please don’t sell the computers” he urged the beneficiaries.

‎”My effort is to make the people of my constituency ICT compliant ‎particularly those within the youth age bracket, just like I have embarked on several other projects that will benefit. The people of my constituency” he stressed.
