A lawmaker in Kogi State has gone viral for an empowerment program he sponsored in his community. Hon. Idowu Ibikunle, the minority leader representing Yagba West Local Government, distributed one motorcycle tyre to each of his constituents as support.

In a video circulating online, community members can be seen accepting the tyres and expressing gratitude by bowing to the lawmaker. Others in the background can be heard congratulating the recipients.

However, this gesture has sparked criticism, with many Nigerians questioning how a single motorcycle tyre can truly improve the lives of the beneficiaries. Some believe empowerment programs should provide more substantial support to the people.

The video continues to generate mixed reactions, with some defending the lawmaker’s intentions while others call for better initiatives that can create lasting change.
