The Action Aid Nigeria PATS-F project on transparency and accountability international monitoring group on Monday adjudged Niger State as the best in school feeding programme.

This rating, according to the organisation, follows the state’s sustenance of food quality and hygienic nature since the inception of the initiative by the Federal Government.

This appraisal was made by the Action Aid Nigeria PATS-F project on transparency and accountability supported by the MacArthur Foundation during a tour of schools benefiting from the Homegrown School Feeding Programme in the state.

The Coordinator, Action Aid, Kehinde Arowosegbe, said, “We have been to other states in Nigeria, we also visited South Africa but Niger State is currently placed among the best. Kaduna used to be the best in Nigeria but Niger State has taken over.

“Life is about competition, Kaduna State was leading a few years back, Niger used to be backward but today it is now the best and I am sure we will learn and achieve more in Nigeria than we would in South Africa.”

The National Programme Manager, Mrs Abimbola Adesanmi, said at the opening ceremony of the National Level Exchange and Experience Sharing Meeting in Minna that about 10 million school pupils across the country were benefiting from the initiative.

In his remarks, Governor Abubakar Bello of Niger State commended the Federal Government for the programme, adding that it had further encouraged more children to go to school.

This is a joke. Just to score cheap political point we keep swimming in mediocrity.











I am yet to see where Governors set canopy to commission road in other countries.



This one na achievement too.

Keep up the good work. Nigeria is too big for our children to be hungry.

That picture is that of Osun state School feeding programme, not Niger state.

They also have the lowest poverty rate

How far Nigeria my country? Can we compare this feeding program to that of any other countries?

The National Programme Manager, Mrs Abimbola Adesanmi, said at the opening ceremony of the National Level Exchange and Experience Sharing Meeting in Minna that about 10 million school pupils across the country were benefiting from the initiative.

God bless the Federal government for this good initiative towards our leaders of tomorrow.

Posterity will judge us all.

God bless Nigeria.

I hope the feeding won't stop any time soon.

Yes, achievement on media for propaganda to cover their embezzlement of the billions budgeted for the feeding.

JosWatchDog:
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says at current numbers, the programme costs $1,767,169.48 per day and over 183 million dollars has been invested so far in the programme.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria, Osinbajo stated this in his keynote address at the closing ceremony of the 20th Annual Global Child Nutrition Forum held at Four Seasons Hotel in Tunis, Tunisia, on Thursday.

Osibanjo was quoted as saying over 9 million pupils in 49,837 public primary schools in 26 states across Nigeria benefitted daily.

According to Osinbajo, “The programme employs 95,422 cooks, and over 100,000 smallholder farmers linked to the programme, supplying locally sourced ingredients.

“This translates to 594 cattle, 138,000 chickens, 6.8 million eggs, 83 metric tons of fish that are procured, prepared, and distributed each week. As you can imagine, the quantity of starch and vegetables required for this programme on a weekly basis is equally impressive”

To all Buharideenis =>

Meanwhile, in my own state, our governor don't even know there's a program like this going on in Nigeria.
