We didn’t distribute spoilt beans to Benue IDPs and Refugees – SEMA

ON APRIL 28, 2020 6:54 PM / IN NEWS /

By Peter Duru, Makurdi

The Executive Secretary of Benue State Emergency Management Agency, SEMA, Dr. Emmanuel Shior has debunked news report that the agency received and distributed 250 bags of spoilt beans from National Commission for Refugees, Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons, NCFRMI to IDPs in the state.

The Executive Secretary in a statement issued Tuesday in Makurdi stated that the clarification became necessary after he was quoted out of context during Monday’s handover of essential items to the agency by the National Commissioner of NCFRMI, Senator Baheer Mohammed.

According to Dr. Shior, “I was represented at the ceremony by the Accountant of the Agency, Mr. Stephen Burbwa who in the course of his speech noted that among the items received two months ago from the NCFRMI were 250 bags of beans which were immediately distributed to IDPs to ensure that they did not get spoilt before the official handover date.

“It was therefore disheartening to read in the media where he was quoted as saying that we received spoilt beans from the NCFRMI and distributed same to IDPs in the state.

“We therefore want to put it on record that the writer of the report quoted my representative at the occasion out of context and we regret any embarrassment the said report may have cost Governor Samuel Ortom and indeed our esteemed partners.

“We also want to appeal to our media partners to always crosscheck their facts for the purpose of clarity before going to press to save our partners this kind of embarrassment.

“We therefore want to reassure our partners of the commitment of Governor Ortom to the wellbeing of all the IDPs and refugees in the state despite obvious economic challenges and wish to solicit sustained support of the federal government in the onerous task of catering for the needs of the IDPs and refugees in the state.”

Is it not better to stop giving anything than to target your countrymen with spoiled rice and beans? If sickness comes now we don't even have good hospitals for the people.

This report is debunking the earlier thread. That's bad journalism by daily trust.

While I won’t call you guys name like you always do, I will urge you to be patriotic once in a while. Fake news is currently the order of the day and it’s only reasonable to read a story well and if possible, wait for other credible media platforms to corroborate the story before believing it.

In as much as it is good to criticize the government and hold those in authority to account, our criticism should not be based on outright falsehood. Even from the fake news that was reported by Independent.ng, the governor clearly refused to accept that 250 bags of beans from NEMA were bad. He even commended the FG for the donation of 3 trailer load of rice. I tried to draw your attention to that part of the story but you conveniently ignored as usual.

Now that the fake story has been debunked, I hope you will accept your mistake and apologize for all the nonsense your posted on the other thread grin grin grin.

Have you forgotten that lies and counter lies, back and forth are the order of the day under this hopeless and useless hypocrite government ever seen in the histroy of Nigeria?

Why are they obsessed about the social media regulation bill? Since you lots have keyed into defending the unpardonable gaffes, enjoy it while its lasts.

Dont be smart by half, because SEMA debunked it doesnt make their claim true, I quoted you on that thread cos you believed that because Ortom hasn't seen it, automatically makes it true.

When Daily Indepen­dent sought the attention of Bashir Garba, the National Commissioner of the Com­mission, to comment on the alleged ‘spoilt beans’, he ig­nored our correspondent and walked briskly to his waiting car and zoomed off.

A lady in Ogun also did a video to show her displeasure about beans goverment gave to her people in Ijebu, what I know is that there must be an iota of truth in what people are saying about spoilt foods from Fg. But one thing, it might not be intentional.

Well, the news has now been debunked as entirely false. The initial news relied on an interview that was granted by the Accountant of SEMA and now the executive secretary has come out clearly to set the record straight. I drew the attention of readers to the comment of the governor so that they won’t be carried away by the false narration of independent.ng.

The 250 bags of beans donated to the IDP by the FG were not bad. The beans have been distributed to the internally displaced people without any issues. You guys need to stop masturbating on fake news simply because you hate the president. Buhari can never intentionally send bad food to the same people he rules over.

Same fake news. The Benue State government has debunked the need the same way Ondo State government debunked the fake news of rejecting the rice donated by FG. The truth is out already so stop the grandstanding. FG did not send 250 bags of spoilt beans to Benue IDP. You can believe whatever lie that makes you happy but it doesn’t change the truth.

There is no zombie anywhere. That you don’t like the president doesn’t mean your criticism should be based on falsehood. Criticize what is genuinely bad and not what was falsely reported as bad. Period.

This is a joke right? Buhari didn't intentionally but he can accidentally send bad food because he cannot be bothered with anything that has to do with his people, he didn't deem it worthy of his personal inspection, no? Logically support or lay out blame were necessary.

You mean Buhari should personally inspect all food items that FG is donating to all the 36 states and the FCT? shocked

See, I would bother to respond to you again because it’s obvious you have closed your eyes to the truth. I will only urge prople like you to be reasonable and truthful in your criticism. FG did not send 250 spoilt bags of beans to Benue. Period.
