In a bid to alleviate hunger and address the economic challenges facing Nigeria, the Aliko Dangote Foundation has announced the launch of a N15 billion food intervention programme.

The initiative spearheaded by the President of the Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, aims to provide essential food items to vulnerable communities across the country.

The food intervention programme was officially unveiled during a ceremony in Kano on Saturday, where Mr. Dangote emphasized the importance of compassion and solidarity, particularly during the holy month of Ramadan.

He highlighted the significance of all stakeholders, including individuals and institutions, in supporting the government’s efforts to tackle hunger and promote social justice.

This intervention, estimated to benefit over one million people, will see the distribution of 10kg bags of rice across all 774 local government areas in Nigeria.

Mr. Dangote emphasized that the programme’s modalities involve collaboration with state and local governments, as well as community partners, to ensure effective delivery of the food items to the most vulnerable individuals, irrespective of their background.

Also, the Aliko Dangote Foundation will distribute 10,000 iftar meals during Ramadan in Kano municipality, further extending its support to those in need during this auspicious month.

The foundation’s commitment to humanitarian efforts extends beyond food relief, as it has been providing daily bread relief programmes since 2020, producing and distributing over 32,000 family-size loaves of bread across Kano and Lagos states.

International Students in Germany Get Pre-Study Work Rights Under New Law

Germany has implemented a new segment of its revamped skilled worker law, granting international students significant pre-study work rights.

This move aims to attract skilled workers from various sectors while fostering integration and easing financial burdens for students.

Under these fresh regulations, non-EU citizens applying for study visas can now arrive in Germany up to nine months before their studies commence.

During this period, which was previously not permitted for work, students are allowed to work part-time for up to 20 hours per week.

This change particularly benefits prospective students from developing countries, offering them the opportunity to support themselves financially while preparing for their academic pursuits.

The revised skilled worker law also extends its support to individuals interested in apprenticeships in Germany.

Third-country nationals seeking apprenticeships can now reside in the country for nine months, provided they demonstrate a B1-level proficiency in German and are below the age of 35.

During this preparatory period, they are permitted to engage in part-time work, laying the groundwork for their transition into full-time training once they secure an apprenticeship position.

Moreover, the new regulations enhance work opportunities for international students already enrolled in German institutions.

The permitted work duration for students has been extended from 120 to 140 full days in any calendar year, equivalent to 20 hours per week, or 280 half days per calendar year.

This adjustment acknowledges the financial challenges students may face and provides them with greater flexibility to manage their expenses.

In addition to pre-study work rights, graduates of German universities now benefit from an extended post-graduation stay of 18 months for job hunting.

This extended period offers graduates ample time to seek employment opportunities within Germany, with the option to apply for permanent residence after two years of continuous employment.

Overall, these amendments to Germany’s skilled worker law underscore the country’s commitment to attracting and retaining international talent.

By providing enhanced work opportunities and support mechanisms for students and graduates, Germany aims to strengthen its position as a hub for global education and professional development.
