He assured that the Fayemi-led government would not fail in delivering the dividends of democracy to the citizenry.

“We understand the financial situations of some of our people and we have decided to assist them in that regard. These grants are provided majorly to support students who could not pay their tuitions, some aged ones who could not afford medical bills and to some whose businesses or petty trades need some sort of financing,” he said.

One of the beneficiaries, Adeoti Sunday, while commending the state government for the gesture said he needed the financial assistance to undergo surgery on his right hand.
