FG, States’ll Feed Schoolchildren At Home, Minister Insists by liljboy(m): 6:45am On May 07, 2020 |
The Federal Government, in partnership with states, is set to start feeding schoolchildren in their home, the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Sadiya Umar-Farouq, announced on Wednesday. On April 8, The PUNCH reported that the Federal Government had finalised plans with state governments to start feeding schoolchildren in their respective homes. Speaking on Wednesday at the Presidential Task Force briefing on COVID-19 in Abuja, Umar-Farouq said the government had overhauled the school feeding programme in a way to ensure that schoolchildren were fed at home despite the lockdown. She said, “We have made progress in the overhauling of the homegrown school feeding programme and sensitisation has already begun in the three frontline states of Ogun, Lagos and the Federal Capital Territory for implementation. “The overhauling was sequel to a March 29, 2020 directive by Mr President to identify modalities and continuation of the school feeding programme during the COVID-19 pandemic in the lockdown states as of then.” She noted that following the directives, her ministry in the collaboration with state governors worked out modalities for the implementation home feeding programme, adding that the initiative was set to commence. “The plan has been adopted, with implementation now set to begin. The programme will therefore be carried out based on data provided and structures put in place by participating states with support from partners that include the World Food Programme.” The minister had explained that the food would be distributed door-to-door, as vouchers would be allocated at specific collection times to avoid overcrowding. She explained that the vouchers would be redeemed at designated distribution sites. This came as the Federal Government on Wednesday handed food items to the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development for vulnerable women across the country. https://punchng.com/fg-statesll-feed-schoolchildren-at-home-minister-insists/?amp=1&__twitter_impression=true |

This is just to make sure that the looting from that angle doesn't stop. These Saints in the kind of Abacha don't play with any opportunity to loot. |

You claimed to share N20,000 to the poorest of the poor but could not share visibly seen facemasks that can be accounted for... If you know the homes of the children, why then didnt palliatives reach each and everyone one accordingly.. |

How is this even possible! This in-your-face robbing has to stop. Nigerians are too docile. There's no better opportunity to reset the system than what's presented itself now. |

May God save Nigeria. Will the Federal and State governments be searching for these children in their various homes to feed ? The money has been disbursed to the ministry already, and the Minister is just looking for ways to cover up the embezzlement. This woman is truly a disaster, saddled with Disaster management 1 Like |
