CACOVID delivers N1.4bn food palliatives to Lagos govt
Published September 24, 2020

Private sector-led Coalition Against COVID-19 has handed over food supply relief packages worth N1.4bn to the Lagos state government, for distribution to the indigent and elderly citizens of the state.

At the official handover ceremony at the governor’s office, the coalition said the food palliatives would cover 107,564 households in the state.

CACOVID, in a statement issued Wednesday, noted that this was in its plan to feed over 1.7m households cutting across the 774 local governments in the country to cushion the effect of the pandemic.


Speaking during the handover in Lagos, CACOVID Lagos Representative and Head of Corporate Communication of Access Bank Plc, Amaechi Okobi disclosed that the coalition had already provided support to the states and federal government in the public health front.

According to him, CACOVID had provided testing support by providing testing kits, laboratories, medical supplies, isolation centres, training of the frontline medical personnel and grassroots awareness campaign.

“Having done all these we thought it right to provide relief packages to our country men, the poor and those most vulnerable in our communities”, he stated.

Amaechi told the state government to make the distribution seamlessly successful by constituting an Implementation Committee chaired by the governor.

He added that the government should draw up a list of the beneficiaries consistent with CACOVID objectives and organize each local government to collect allocations for the people.

Speaking on the items received, Acting Commissioner for Agriculture, Abisola Olusanya noted that the food items were being repackaged by the Ministry of Agriculture to ensure each beneficiary got the right quantity of items.

Olusanya stated that in terms of the distribution modality, the state would borrow a leaf from the experience garnered during the lockdown period when it pioneered the distribution of over 50,000 food beneficiary packs.

“Under the administration of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, we have taken the pains to get bags marked, to print on them the Lagos State logo, the CACOVID logo and to put these items in each pack, such that we have transparency across board,” she said.

She added that the team had repackaged 50,000 beneficiary packs so far and the redistribution would take place in the next couple of days.

Look at Funke Egbemode, Osun State Commissioner for Information's Facebook post in May acknowledging the receipt of palliatives from CA-COVID. Is May recent to you? She even acknowledged that some of the foods were already getting spoilt before residents took their possession.

Please check her Facebook timeline to confirm and see Polithiefcians' wickedness and stupidity.

Borno State Governor, Professor Zulum is the only sane Politician in Nigeria. Other states governors and Senators are wicked Animals in Human skin.

Plan plan plan can you see how fast you can distribute if you just got past the planning planning

CACOVID is heartless over their own money freely contributed for the benefit of the masses?

You also claim since last year?

You see how you anarchists lie like demon possessed hoodlums.

Was there Covid-19 in Nigeria lastyear?

I see your wrote up.

However, if you go through my posts, you will discover I have never supported any form of looting.

My major concern was what led to it.

Government handled the #ENDSARS protest as an opposition antics and paid lip service as usual to it. Check my pictures with dates of when Buhari started promising police reform and ending of SARs

They insisted they don't want lip service but action and we know how government reacted.

Hiring thugs and sending soldiers to what can be solved by dialogue and implementing what was asked for.

It first started as anger over the killings till palliatives were discovered at Oba of Lagos house.

I cannot supporting looting of any kind even if the palliatives was not even recently brought.

Looting is a crime and many states will soon start prosecuting some hungry Nigerians arrested in the act.

Our political leaders also don't have the ear of the hungry masses as it's not election time when they come to share stipends.

Since you sound very sane, if you were the president or Governor now, what will you do differently?

I know you are doing your JOB and that is why you want to be right by all means but on the other hand .. I am a concerned citizen who wants to know what sort of a plan that take months on end to distribute pallatives when looting has shown that it was shareable In less than 6 hours ?

If that is not heartless to you ..I will love to know what matrices you measure life by.

Now covid started in 2019 sir even if it didn't reach us then .. If I may ask when did you guys receive the pallatives and why is it hard to distribute that a crisis had to arise for Nigerians to find out that you had ware houses full of food?!

Guy these are strong evidences to prove that the palliatives were supplied recently.
That is to a sane and objective mind.

But 2 sets of people cannot comprehend this;

A hungry man and A wailer.

You have realised you are drowning in ignorance.

My only job is to cure the army of irrational youth who can never appreciate facts and figures even if it would cost them their lives.

Lagos state has shown many evidences that the items were recently supplied. I have gone ahead to show you the Punch News report that covered the event.

But you insist you want to celebrate being the victim of a wicked government, and will never accept the facts that dampened your celebration.

Now that a few hoodlums termed Palliative Hunters have robbed the multitude of masses of what was provided for them by the wealthy, are you ready to bring out your own funds to cater for those who will certainly suffer for criminality of the mob you're praising?

I respect the way you have composed the message but let's be honest are you telling me that the it was just recently ..jos , kwara and the rest got their pallatives and were planning to share it too?

Bros make we talk as Nigerians now leave any sides or political loyalty .. Be honest did you think the discovered pallatives that was looted was truly going to be distributed ?

I mean if the government truly planned to distribute, what was the delay ...I don't mean Lagos state sir, I mean the whole Nigeria ...

I do not support any government that allowed its own citizens be harassed for years with loud complaints without any corrective actions.

What I would have done was to be responsive and prompt, without allowing a panel report on the same matter gather dust since June 2019.

I will never use the Army to settle any internal security crisis. I will never do that.

For palliatives during the thick of the lockdown, I would ensure a more "auditable" distribution was done from the state government up to the local governments.

Also the BVN/bank records can be easily employed to show who is struggling at what age, and with the registered addresses, deliver palliatives to recipients who are already known.

Artisans, market sellers and daily blue collar workers can be easily reached through their unions and associations.

Some of these steps were already being mapped out and implemented in Lagos since the 1st of October from the evidences released by Lagos State.

But some hoodlums have decided they deserve it all.

Yea, but seriously, Nigerians are hungry sir. A hungry man can do anything.

Have seen pictures of fathers and mothers struggling to get the loots and its breaks my heart.

Since I can't do anything for now, am planning a framework and a platform to rally the youths and sensible people from my state.

My aim is to start early sensitization and not start fire brigade action few months to elections.

I advice you do same Sir.

Enough of this Kakistocracy which have landed us in trouble.

Safe

Nice to see that they have been repackaging it for 1 month now (since the article is September 24th). Anyway, the masses has already helped themselves so mission accomplished (sort of).

Next time the NGO who raised the money should distribute it themselves.

While this specific news was published on 24th September, it was reporting an event that happened 22nd September.

Funny enough, Lagos State has been sharing theirs since 1st October up till 3rd October, after which it was paused until they were stolen by a few masses.

The evidence of the sharing was also released by the state government showing handover to representatives of some sociocultural groups.

Why can’t CACOVID issue a press statement to clear the air? If CACOVID and the Nigeria governors forum had issued a joint press statement explaining why some of the palliatives are still in the warehouse immediately after the Lagos incidence, maybe the madness wouldn’t have spread to other states. But they all kept quiet thinking what happened in Lagos would be an isolated incident. Sadly, it has gone out of hand. I have seen pictures of people looting UN properties in Calabar today under the guise of looking for palliatives.

But the newspapers actually carried the news of the recent supply, but people just wanted to believe that a wicked government has wronged them, so when the respective state governments brought out their evidence to confirm the recent supply, many refused to accept that they were wrong.

Apart from Lagos state, I’m not sure any other state government reacted immediately after Lagos warehouse was looted. What about CACOVID? Why have they refused to say anything officially since the palliative looting started?

You are wrong. Look at the attached picture below and make more research about it.

Has anyone disproved that palliatives were supplied in May? Have they not been shared out already?

Are you not seeing the evidence of the supply done in September/October?

Or because some states or all states got in May, they must not get again in September?

Did Punch News know that there will be Palliative Hunters when it published the CACOVID delivery to Lagos state in September?

Or is Osun State also known as Lagos State?

To answer your second question, the palliatives donated to Osun State were not shared. The government said they were waiting for the "rice components' and 'order' from Abuja before they can start distribution. The garri and tea that were there were getting spoilt already. Does that make sense to a hungry man?
