The Commissioner of Police (CP), Federal Intelligence Bureau Abuja, Ahmed Abdulrahman, has enjoined Nigerians to imbibe the spirit of given alms especially to the less-privileged in the society.

He said the reason for the intense poverty and hunger in the society was as a result of the failure of people to render help to the needy.

Abdulrahman said this yesterday during the yearly Ramadan lecture organised by Nasrul Lahi-L-Fathi Society of Nigeria (NASFAT), Kaduna Branch.

The CP, who was the Guest Speaker at the occasion, stated that whoever removes from his hard-earned wealth to put smile on the face of another as charity, will surely be rewarded by God Almighty abundantly.

“By helping the less-privileged in the society, it will reduce the spread of poverty and bring about unity,” he said.
