Federal Ministry of humanitarian, Disasters Management and Social Development, has donated six thousand bags of Rice to Oyo, Osun, Ondo and Ekiti states as part of Covid-19 economic stimulus package.
The donation was as a result of a directive by President Muhammadu Buhari to the Nigeria Customs Service to release 150 truckload of rice seized from smugglers.
Presenting the rice consignments to the representatives of the affected states in Ibadan, the Comptroller of Customs for Oyo/Osun Area Command, Helen Ngozi, said Customs was releasing three truckloads of rice each to the affected states as parts of palliatives to cushion the effect of Covid-19.
The Oyo State Co-ordinator of State Operation Co-coordinating Unit (SOCU), Youth Empowerment and Social Support Operation (YESSO), Mrs Olaide Lasisi who coordinated the distribution of the Rice Consignment ensure that they were in good condition and fit for human consumption.
The Executive Adviser to the governor Seyi Makinde on Agribusiness, Dr. Debo Akande appreciated the Federal Government and promised that the State would ensure the palliatives reach the most vulnerable in the society.
Also speaking, The Ekiti state Commissioner for Commerce and Industry, Dr Bode Olaonipekun gave an assurance that the State has put in a place a standard that would ensure that those really in need are reached directly.

Federal and State governments affected by the lockdown to curb the spread of coronavirus in the country need to consider the wellbeing of Nigerians in the implementation of the 14 days extension of the lockdown.
A public affairs analyst, Mr Phil Aragbada stated this while reacting to President Muhammadu Buhari’s speech to Nigerians on the update of COVID-19 pandemic.
Mr Aragbada said it was the responsibility of government to ensure safety of lives and property but in carrying out such responsibilities, the wellbeing of every citizen must be considered to avoid hunger and its adverse effects.
While commending the President’s promise to introduce more measures to encourage the health workers in the frontline, Mr Aragbada challenged government to also ensure rewarding incentives for journalists both in government and privately owned media, considering their roles in information sharing at curbing the spread of COVID-19.
Mr Aragbada appealed to Nigerians to be patient with government, stressing that with all hands on deck the country would successfully overcome the current challenged posed by COVID-19 epidemic.
