Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>As Kano State Commences the distribution of 52,000 Bags of Rice and 52,000 bags of Maize as palliative to the most vulnerable persons in the state, Governor Abba Yusuf has warned the Distribution Committee against taking advantage of their position.<\/p>\n

Governor Yusuf who flagged off the distribution exercise said the items have been earmarked only for the poor, as such, journalists, security agencies, and civil servants must not go near the items<\/p>\n

He said the palliatives would go to cushion the effect of subsidy removal for the poor and most vulnerable.<\/p>\n

Governor Abba insisted that the elites in the state would not benefit from the palliatives, warning that the state would resist any attempt to divert the items.<\/p>\n

He explained that this is the second distribution for 484 wards across the 44 LGS and selected vulnerable groups, adding that the committee was made up of trusted and religious leaders.<\/p>\n

\u201cEach ward would receive 400 of 10 kg of Rice free with 991,000 Maize, Tsangaya and Islamiyya schools and Tory homes, persons with special needs, junior civil servants, widows and orphans will benefit\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Chairman of the palliative compliance committee, who is also Secretary to the State Government, Dr Abdullahi Baffa Bichi, revealed that the Governor also added 99 trucks of rice to support the 50 sent by the federal government and procured an additional 72 bags of maize.<\/p>\n
