Some critics are hell bent to criticize this government just because of unguarded hatred for Mr President, even when this intention and programme means well. I am encourage by your choice of word "snowball effect". I concur absolutely.

Imagine channelling this fund to states for development projects or better still, Fg using it to equip our schools with science equipments

waice6571:


In my own case, I have been able to separate hatred for govt from reality.

The question is:
1. How long can they sustain this program?

2. What is the cost implication in the next four years?

3. What will be implication if same amount is sincerely channelled towards fixing electricity/ rural roads construction for reliable transportation of agricultural produce which is more beneficial to the people?

4. Why can't government handle governmental businesses and parents; parenting?


I don't expect such amount to end in septic tank without any return.

Quote me with honest answers.
Thanks.

Please, have you considered the ripple benefit s of the programme? Increased number of pupils enrollment, agricultural boost, and employment. Let look at the immediate positive side than negative side.

Its still 18 states for 93 billion naira (for six months). In 1 year 18 states will consume 186 billion naira.
Ans when all the 36 states get involved + the FCT it will amount to about 400 billion naira just to feed primary school pupils annually in Nigeria.

What a confused government..why didnt the fedral government asked kaduna state of how far they gone..the truth is that the school feeding program failed before it even kicked of in kaduna state.
It a patetic situation were jolly juice is being mixed with water, sealed and shared to children with puff puff, or sometimes, they share biscuit for children....oh what a waste of fund. This are fund that should be used to improve the quality of education, by providing infrastructure and other basic necesities for schools.

- 93 billion naira is far less than what Dansuki alone was sharing among his cohorts. Anything wrong in Govt giving directly to the citizen where there will be no bogus contracts and rip off?
- There is an adage that says when you remove hunger from the poverty equation, the problem is half solved.
- Health is wealth. With children eating good food, their visits to hospitals due to various disease will reduce.
- This is a social benefit initiative by the Government to help her citizens some of whom are extremely poor.
- This will help school enrollment as this is one other incentive that will make school attractive to kids and in effect aid their learning.
- There are other aspects of the 2016 budget that deals with capital projects which includes equipping and furnishing public schools.
- Many have complained about how citizens of some countries are benefiting from social welfare package by their Govt, while there is none for Nigerians. What is wrong in Nigeria helping her poor citizens to feed kids who are in Primary 1 to 3?
- It is a token, but it will go a long way in alleviating poverty of some citizens.
- With the high price of fuel / subsidy removal due to fraud in the system and non availability of forex, consider this as a palliative to cushion the effects of the hike
- This initiative will create a snowball effect whereby farmers, food sellers, kitchen utensil suppliers etc will benefit, in an organised fashion.

Why cant this fund be given out in forms of loans of 400,000 naira each to create more jobs and businesses?

That is 400 Billion Naira that will be circulating within the Economy..

Not a kobo of that 400 Million is leaving the Economy.. How can that be bad?

waice6571:



Mr abimo mo wo tin duro ounje iponju lati bo omo re.

Let me try and give you the interpretation.

Someone who gave birth to children without the consequential responsibility in mind will always seek bread of affliction to feed them.

Pity you and likes of you.
Irresponsible burden to the society.
Shame on you.
