COVID-19 Lockdown: Gov. Wike Under Fire For Allegedly Giving Out 3 Cups Of Rice by Faithful4real(m): 5:05am On Apr 15, 2020
Former National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party, nPDP, and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has described the palliative measures put in place by the Rivers State Government to cushion the effect of the COVID -19 lockdown as a serious embarrassment to the sensibilities of the good people of Rivers State.
In a statement made available to media houses in Port Harcourt, Eze maintained that Rivers people deserve more than three cups of rice, few cups of garri and a sachet of noodle as palliative for each family after budgeting a whopping sum of two billion naira (N2B) in this regard.
According to the State opposition party chieftain, “the State government food palliative intervention through its Committee headed by His Excellency, Ambassador Desmond Akawo the newly elected PDP State Chairman though targeted mainly to PDP members, are 3 cups of rice; 5 cups of garri; one sachet of noodles (indomie) for a family.
“I would suggest that rather than humiliate and embarrass PDP members and citizens in such brazen manner and turn them to mere beggars, it would have been best if the government and its agents kept their money and allowed markets to open for free commerce. Families can fend for themselves above such humiliating and ridiculous degrees to which the state has subjected them,” Eze stressed.
Eze further blasted the State Government for allegedly excluding the APC faithful from the palliative intervention and further stated that “the action of the State government has further exposed the ineptitude and recklessness of the PDP administration in attending and addressing issues of critical importance like public welfare etc. “

This dude should be left alone.

This is Wike's last term and he needs to loot the treasury empty. Rivers people should try and understand. He has served for a term and let him use this one to amass wealth.

They should learn to appreciate the little given to them. If he decides not to give, nothing will still happen. So why are they wailing.

See him looking like an over-fed bulldog.

Greedy lots.

I wonder when the poor citizens of the state will ever get lucky to share from the huge allocate accessible to the state every month if not at this critical time.

I told them that day that the rice will not go any where. Those that were celebrating that day as PDP governor that should be emulate by APC should come and continue their celebration o. You guys can't back out now. Lol

Pdp supporters would spin this one to say he copied the behavior from APC.

On a second thought, I feel they might be reluctant to do so because of what he did to Easterners yesterday, calling them thieves - a characterization they were miffed by, expectedly.


Maybe we might have to wait for a while before we start seeing their wholesale defence of the crude brute of a governor once again, their anger towards him is still fresh.

This is so pathetic. Imagine just three cups of grains given to people in this difficult time. Only time will tell between the people and their so-called oppressors.

First of all we don't bring what we do to help out as much as we can to Nairaland or anywhere on social media.
But to make you happy, go to our posts 3 weeks back and find the only 3 posts we made about somethings all of us @ did just 3 days into the LOCKDOWN (and keep on doing) just to encourage anyone that can do the same thing in their neighborhood.

We've given you a full minute to reply you this early morning,
and we don't do that everyday,
Today will be a good day for you o pyxxaro,
Watch out for something good.
Bye!

What do you expect when a governor can't find any credible neutral person in Rivers to head the distribution committee but PDP State Chairman. From day one, I know the palliative will do exactly the opposite which is to further increase the already bad situation.

My opinion is why can't the local, state ,Federal and all the individual sharing be merged and CBN use BVN of Nigerian to check individual acct history for say within the last two months. Any one who has less than 10k balance within thus period should be credited with say 20k. I know majority will not like this bcs it will not get to most people including me but I don't care. Any one that has money in his acct to sustain for say a month isn't poor from my definition of poverty

How will you be sharing palliative to people who are already civil servants and earn income even without going to work, I don't get this. This useless leaders from top to bottom know the right thing but since they will not benefit by looting the fund, it's a no no for them. Imagined, how much the politician would have looted in the name if sharing 20,000 cash to the Vulnerable by FG to food sharing by the state government. How on earth will any sane person hand over cash to contractor to share to people by only ticking their name from a register.
Who do us for this country!!!!!! embarassed
