First Lady Fathimath Ibrahim’s charity foundation has started distributing dates ahead of the fasting month of Ramadan.
Sadaqat Foundation staff and ruling party lawmakers were handing out the dates in Malé’s streets and near ferry terminals on Saturday. According to MP Yameen Rasheed, the dates are being distributed as in previous years with the “well wishes of the First Lady.”
The first lady has also been handing out gift packages with wheat flour, dates and canned tuna during door-to-door campaigning in the capital, VFP reported.
A Sadaqat official declined to comment on the source of the dates.
