He urged the beneficiaries to use the opportunity provided through the EU support, to build financial base for themselves. He also urged them not to sell off the kits bit deploy then for maximum use.

EU Coordination Team Leader Kabiru Abass disclosed that the union was supporting 21 out of 27 local governments in the states.

‘We are here to support the programmes of the government in helping vulnerable people in their various communities. Plan International led consortium is one of the 15 interventions of the EU in Borno state,’ he disclosed.

Interim Country Director of Plan International Nigeria Mr Robert Komakech explained that the support was being given to 1,370 beneficiaries out of the 2400 youths selected for the first phase of the livelihood support project.
