Who do we offend in this country?

The Nigerian state exploitation of ordinary people especially, women and children,
in environmentally polluted and devastated oil producing communities in the Niger Delta region, is mainly responsible for our misfortune and retrogression as a Nation. The list does not include govt. and oil companies collaborators in the region who are feeding fat on the anomalies in the region.

Fot the simple reason that proceeds from the sale of cocoa, cotton and groundnut money was not used to develop an inch of Niger Delta region, Nigeria's woes will continue to be a case of 'from fry pan to fire' (from IBB to Abacha to GMB) until the Niger Delta people are allowed to manage and utilize their naturally endowed resources exclusively for their own benefits and appropriate taxes paid to the central government as it was done with proceeds from Cocoa, Cotton and Groundnut in time past.
The Niger Delta resources has mainly been used to develop Lagos, Abuja and major parts of the Northern region of the country.

So they still went ahead with this scam despite the public outcry? Even with a woman at the forefront. Nig is doomed.

This fulani woman will end up in jail; It is just a matter of time. Buhari won't be president of Nigeria forever and certainly a Southerner is taking over in 2023.

This feeding scam is too obvious !

Federal Government Kicks-Off Modified Home Grown School Feeding Programme in Lagos

The Honourable Minister for Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Hajia Sadiya Umar Farouk, on Thursday, flagged-off the modified National Home Grown School Feeding Programme in Lagos State.

In her keynote address at the ceremony held at LASUBEB premises in Ikeja, the Minister stated that the continuation of the programme was a sequel to the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari that the Ministry should liaise with State Governments to develop a strategy for the continuation of the school feeding programme, despite school closure caused by the Coronavirus pandemic.

Farouk, who was represented at the event by the Director, National Commission for Refugees, Migrants and IDPs in the Ministry, Mrs. Margaret Ukegbu, explained that the special intervention will impact 37,589 beneficiaries made up of Parents, Guardians and Caregivers of Primary School children in participating schools.

She said, “The identified and selected households will each receive 5kg bag of Rice, 5kg bag of Beans, Vegetable and Palm Oil, Salt, Tomato Paste and 15 pieces of eggs. These rations have been revealed by nutrition experts to be of good nutritional value and benefit to the children”.

While noting that 17 countries around the world are currently employing the take-home ration option, she reiterated that it is a globally accepted means of supporting children to continue having access to nutrition despite the disruption to the traditional channels of school feeding.

She also commended the Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu for his uncommon commitment and engagement towards making the programme a success, while also thanking the Chairman of LASUBEB, Mr. Wahab Alawiye-King for his unflinching support.

Hajia Farouk noted that Lagos was chosen as one of the pilot States for the commencement of the programme due to the fact that it has been on the frontline in the battle to contain and flatten the curve of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In her remarks, the Lagos State Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Folasade Adefisayo observed that the modified edition is a continuation of the existing home-grown school feeding programme of the State government, in conjunction with the Federal Government, where over 100,000 pupils in public primary schools were fed daily.

She reiterated the importance of food in the development of a child, noting that the modified feeding programme will go a long way in aiding the growth of children.

“When a child is growing, it is quite imperative that the child should have a good quality balanced diet in order to feed the brain and ensure that the brain grows appropriately. This is vital because a hungry child cannot learn properly. So, the take-home ration is to ensure a balanced diet for the children”, she explained.

Contributing to the discourse, the Executive Chairman of the Lagos State Universal Basic Education Board, LASUBEB, Mr. Wahab Alawiye-King, stated that the commencement of the distribution of the take-home ration is to ensure that the hardship caused by COVID-19 is minimised, noting that a lot of work has gone into ensuring that the modified feeding programme is carried out in a transparent and seamless manner.

“In a few days, all the targeted households would have received their vouchers which will enable them collect their food rations. At the end of the exercise, 37,589 households and families of pupils in Primary Schools (Class 1-3) would have been fed”, he said.

While thanking the Federal Government for the laudable initiative, Alawiye-King also expressed his gratitude to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for supporting the programme and ensuring that it is brought to fruition.

The Chairman also solicited for the cooperation and understanding of all stakeholders in getting the food items to intended beneficiaries across the State.

This is what we call day light robbery the same way we go for elections when you already know the exercise has been manipulated from the very beginning. Package THIEFS indiara
