According to him, the formal launch of Engr. Strikah Foundation coincided with the 2024 Ramadan hence the decision to select fasting muslims as major beneficiaries.
He assured that more less privileged individuals would be captured in subsequent support and empowerment programs of the foundation.
” Today is one of the happiest moments of my life. To God be the glory for the successful launch of Engr. Strikah Foundation. For me it is a dream come true. I have been lending support and giving my widow’s mite to individuals and associations in the last few years.
