Noma, who spoke passionately about his commitment to uplifting the lives of those in need, disclosed the details of the groundbreaking initiative during a press conference held in his hometown in the Argungu area of Kebbi State. The lawmaker expressed that the marriage plan is a significant aspect of his broader efforts to contribute to the well-being of orphans within his constituency.

The grand ceremony is set to take place at the esteemed Palace of the Emir of Argungu, Alhaji Sama’ila Muhammad Mera, on Saturday, Nov. 25. The choice of such a prestigious venue reflects the gravity of the occasion and the importance Noma places on the event.

Noma explained, "A committee has been set up for the successful implementation of the event. Those selected to be married out were drawn from the two local government areas that I’m representing at the National Assembly." This careful selection process aims to ensure that the beneficiaries are truly representative of the community Noma serves.

In a further display of his commitment, the lawmaker revealed that he has already procured essential items for the newlyweds-to-be. "Already, I have procured beds, mattresses, essential furniture, and other matrimonial commodities for the beneficiaries," he stated. This thoughtful provision goes beyond the ceremonial aspect of the marriages, emphasizing Noma's dedication to ensuring the practical well-being of the couples.

As news of this extraordinary initiative spreads, it has sparked conversations about the intersection of philanthropy, societal norms, and the role of lawmakers in addressing the needs of the most vulnerable.
