He said the operational results of the agency showed that for two consecutive years, the agency attained an annual target of about N100 million in the collection of Zakat and Sadaqat.
He said, “With the continuous effort, consistent achievement and growth of the agency, we paddled through the tides of the challenges around our operating environment for the performance during the year under review, as we have successively crossed the N100m mark in our annual Zakat & Sadaqat collections for the second time in the history of the agency.”
The beneficiaries of the donations include Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), health support and outreach patients, disadvantaged students, empowerment beneficiaries, Train for Fund Scheme awardees, food and clothing recipients, etc.
President of NASFAT, Mr Niyi Yusuf, commended the directors and management of the agency for the achievements.
