Nigerians In Adamawa Reject Rice Palliative Branded With President Tinubu's Picture, Says 'It’s Spoiled, Substandard'

Some Nigerians in Adamawa State have rejected rice distributed by President Bola Tinubu to cushion the effect of hardship.

They accused the President of inflicting hardship on the country with the removal of subsidy on Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), also known as petrol.

They alleged that the rice being distributed was either spoiled or substandard.

They staged a protest on Tuesday, shortly after the Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Bishop Stephen Dami Mamza, distributed 500kg bags of rice to 1,000 beneficiaries in the state.

Bishop Mamza who is also the Catholic Bishop of Yola Diocese disclosed that the rice palliative was sent from the Presidency to be distributed to indigent CAN members.

He thanked the President for remembering the poor in the rice distribution.

The beneficiaries said the rice which was packaged in sacks bearing President Tinubu's pictures was a mixture of black and brown grains.

"For God’s sake, they're giving us this spoiled rice just because we're poor people, right? No problem, there's God," one of the beneficiaries lamented.

Another beneficiary asked: "You mean these people are callous enough to serve us this rice that looks more like animal feed?"

Another person, Johnson Abana, said, "I don't think the President has seen this rice. I can only suspect that someone within the corridor of power may have short-changed both the President and the people.”

"This is ungodly, wicked and evil! Yes, it is evil to mock people with bad food just because they're poor," he added.

Time for Tinubu to sit up and work the economy.

Sharing of palliatives should not be the alternative cos the poverty in the land is bitting very hard.

Fix the economy and everyone can fend for him/herself.

When he said " Na statistics we go chop ", he was right afterall. A vast majority of Nigerians are hungry and the Nigeria's styled palliative, which in my opinion doesn't solve any problem for the people was Bulaba's only solution to unemployment and poverty eradication.

It's a sad situation which requires only good governance to turn the tide around.

Nigeria will be worse in more years to come because of tribalism and religion!!

Inspite of how northerners died like flies during Buhari's tenure, the northerners never complained!
Now a Yoruba man is president and the Yorubas would rather shout "Ebi nkpa wa" than speak out for the useless policies of this government!!
Tomorrow, when an igbo man becomes president, the Igbos will look away in the face of corruption and insecurities ( this is debatable considering the Igbos haven't had this opportunity yet)

If this palliative has Buhari's pictures, this hungry northerners would have jumped at it!!

The solution of this problem is for the country to be divided. Let the Hausas and Yorubas be merged together, and let the Igbos and other tribes be in a separate country!! grin

I rest my case grin
