Abdul Samad Rabiu Rabiu Donates N2B To Rebuild Over 150yr Old Zaria Central Mosque

Abdul Samad Rabiu, the Chairman of BUA Group has donated N2Billion to rebuild the iconic Zaria Central Mosque.

The over 150-year-old Central Mosque located in Zaria, a part of Zazzau Emirate Council, Kaduna State collapsed on Friday, August 11, 2023, resulting in deaths and injuries for some worshipers.

The BUA Group chairman made the donation on Saturday at the official ceremony of the reconstruction fund while urging other stakeholders to be part of the rebuilding of the historic central mosque by coming together as a united front fostering unity and progress.

“In supporting this effort we are not only preserving something of historical significance but also investing in education and empowerment of people within the Zazzau emirate and other parts of Nigeria” the BUA Chairman who is getting widespread commendation for the reduction of the price of BUA Cement to N3500 stated at the ceremony.

The price reduction is on the face of the general price of N5500.

The BUA Chairman made the N2Billion donation on behalf of himself, his family, and ASR Africa Initiative – the foundation making high-impact interventions across the continent – as part of the process of “building a foundation for a better and brighter future”.

Among other interventions in security, health, education, and social development with 10 billion Naira in grants of 2.5 billion Naira each to 4 States as part of the scheme, ASR Africa Initiative founded by Abdul Samad Rabiu started the construction of a N2.5Billion Oncology Centre in Ilorin, Kwara state on Friday, October 6, 2023.
