Ayanma!! Nigerians Eating Lizards, Cats And Frogs To Survive Recession by teewhizzy4real(m): 7:40pm On Sep 17, 2016 |
Some families in Kaduna have already
been forced to eat leaves so as to survive
because the rising cost of food stuff
brought about by the current economic
recession, could not allow them have the
financial resources to visit the markets.
A youth leader, Malam Hassan Ahmed
Rufa’i said that leaves such as “tafasa”,
spinach, etc, had came to the rescue of
these near-starving families, while lizards
and cats might become endangered
specie because some children were
already seen hunting them to provide a
cheap source of protein for their families.
Lamenting the increasing excruciating
economic hardship, Rufa’i lashed at top
political office holders, as well as the rich
and affluent people in communities
around Kawo, Unguwan Dosa, Hayin
Banki and Unguwan Kanawa, saying they
had the capability to assist the poor in
their midst but were not living up the
masses’ expectations.
“Some of them have gone on Hajj for the
umpteenth time, while the money they
spend making such regular hajj visits
could have been used to buy food and
feed several mouths. Hajj is incumbent
upon a Muslim, once in a life time, if the
person can afford it,” he emphasised.
He added that, “rice and maize as well as
other staple food items have turned into
precious commodities which only the rich
and privileged could afford. Many of our
people now feed on leaves, some cannot
even cook the normal pate, they are
seriously feeling the pang of an
excruciating poverty.
We pray the government should come to
peoples rescue by establishing free
feeding centers.
“The other time, I saw some children
chasing a big agama lizard. When I asked
them what they were doing, they said
they want to kill it because its roasted
meat was sweet. They added that even
cats are longer spared because it is also a
delicacy,” he said.
The youth leader challenged people in
authority to explain how the food items
donated to the state by Hajiya Aisha
Buhari, were disbursed, alleging that
there was little of no adequately publicity,
if any, on how the items were distributed.
“People here are suffering; hunger is
everywhere.
If you go to the Masjid, you see people
begging for money to buy food.
Go to the hospitals, you see malnourished
children everywhere needing Medicare
and the Doctors will say it’s either malaria
or typhoid that is their ailment.
“Government should please come to our
aid.
It is capable of taking the people out of
this predicament,” he insisted.
