Niger To Spend N1.2bn In 20 Days On School Feeding by nwakibie3(m): 3:50pm On Sep 20, 2017
The Niger government says it will spend N1.2 billion in every 20 days of the primary school feeding programme expected to kick off Sept. 25.


Mrs. Afiniki Dauda, Special Adviser to Gov. Abubakar Bello on Empowerment and Social Protection, disclosed this on Tuesday in Minna, during the training of 150 food vendors and desk officers on food safety and hygiene.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the training, tagged: “train the trainees”, was organised for selected vendors across the 25 local government areas, to prepare them for the feeding programme.

Dauda said that the Federal Government would spend N70 per day, for every child involved in the feeding programme.



“We have submitted a list of well over 800,000 pupils from 3,000 schools for the programme; its principal aim is to
raise nutritional value among pupils and increase school enrollment,” she said.

She said that 70,170 vendors had been captured for the programme, adding that their data had been submitted to the National Identity Management office for verification.

The official said that government had set up a special monitoring and evaluation team consisting of desk officers, counselors, parents and teachers association to ensure its success.

Dauda warned vendors and other officials against diverting food items meant for the pupils, saying that anyone caught would be prosecuted.

Misplaced priority...why not channel it to pay salaries?

I thought the north claims they have food and it's cheap? Why feed the children?

Some governors don't know how to set their priorities right.First of all empower the children's parents or guardians and pay them as at when due.
