I know they will eat it like that

True talk lol.

It is like some people are just praying for this government not to be able to do any good. Good news saddens them, and they are always on the lookout for ways to make a scandal

I knew the Governor has been lashed by APC d moment the Minister of humanitarian affairs said it was fake news on national TV. Now this rebuttal. APC is easily predictable.

The question is, are there spoilt rice among what was sent? Was there plan to return them to FG? Is that not rejection?

Why are they trying hard to disprove these facts?

Shame on APC

Shame on Akeredolu for being a coward!

It is so unfortunate that some people have decided to play dirty politics with the good gesture of the president. It is only normal that some few bags would be bad as a result of storage over a long period of time. Insinuating that Buhari deliberately send bad rice to the south west is evil and senseless.

The same rice was given to all the 36 states and FCT without any issues. Even Oyo State that rejected 1800 bags only showed us one bad bag. It’s good that Ondo State government has come out clearly to correct the misinformation in the public domain.

You're a clueless fellow!

Don't bother to reply me. Just accept the fact that you are a clueless fellow!!!

Well, I don't know if there is political tone in it, but I think Ondo state has not done anything wrong, is even good they raised alarm so that subsequent distributions will receive better attention by the FG. What happen to the strategic supply chains and quality control method, that will now make us to ridicule ourselves to this level. Other countries are getting it right tackling covid-19 let get it right for once.

You are not just clueless, you also lack manners.

It's someone like you that is blind to reality. You need to go and study what governance is all about before you condemn anybody. Is FG the maker of the rice? So, now that Makinde has rejected the rice they will give him another one.
There is no sense in what he did.

So politicians can be blind to reality because of political consideration.Given the pictures of the alleged rice displayed recently, that the Ondo government is making this volte face simply means Nigeria is an irredeemably cursed nation.Aketi you've done a disgraceful thing.[/quote]

Sincerely ask yourself, if it's possible for all the 1800 bags of rice could be bad?

Its expected he can't speak against his own government bt then makinde' s statement shud be properly looked at cos he is not the the to play politics with things that benefit his people.

This is to tell you how insensitive, a government can be esp.in a time of global pandemic by distributing contaminated food iteams in the name of palliative.For goodness sake, is NAFDAC not there to certified it fit before consumption?

Do you lots ever think about the national and internation-al embarrassment this clueless regime have subjected Nigeria to? A government that appoints dead people into positions? Sai baba zombiesm and cluelessness is truly contagious.

You will use your hand to kill yourself the way you rant. Your energy is far too negative.

Oluwamarc:
It is pertinent to react to the publication in some national newspapers that the Ondo State Government has rejected the bags of rice supplied to it by the federal government. For the records, the story is untrue and sensational.

At no time did the governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, instructed that the rice, meant to assist the state to combat food insecurity, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, be rejected and returned to Abuja.

On receipt of the items, the Palliative Committee did a random physical inspection on the rice, and discovered that some appear unhealthy for consumption, at least on the face-value, while others look good.

The Committee indeed drew the attention of Mr. Governor to this and pleaded for proper guidance.

While awaiting the thoughts of Mr. Governor, the Committee members met and decided to carry out a comprehensive inspection, to ascertain how many bags have been affected on account of storage. We discovered that less than ten percent of the lot falls into this category, and subsequently separated the few bags.

It is therefore very embarrassing that newspapers will go to town that the State Government has rejected the Federal Government support. The state is rather deeply appreciative of the Federal Government for standing by it in this trying time, and very optimistic that the support will further cushion the effects of hunger on our people.

I want to urge journalists to be painstaking in their assignments, and always put their crave for scoop in check.

He's still saying the same thing.

Federal government of Nigeria sent out expired rice as palliative.

It's not hard to understand nah.

To think that this is not the first time its happening means that its intentional.

What do you expect from Shy Baba?

To be honest, I don’t get the point that some of you are trying to make. What exactly is the big deal in the discovery that some of the rice were bad? The rice in question were seized from smugglers and stored in custom warehouse over a long period of time. It is only normal that part of it would be bad as a result of poor storage.

If some bags are bad, the normal thing to do is to separate the bad ones and share the good ones. Making this a political issue is just senseless.

Media is the enemy here, they hyped everything. Even if its to eat the bad rice and keep shut some of these governors will do it for political ambitions.

He separated rice, they claimed he returned all truck load.
Media is the enemy..

Get the fvck out of here.

Akwaibom state govr mentioned this in his briefing yesterday.
Some bags of rice are bad.
This isn't politics, if there is my one playing politics on palliative it is the federal govt of Buhari.
He has failed in everything from distribution to being fair to the entire states.

We heard you, Mr. Governor.
Meanwhile, Start doing your own business from the comfort of your home. No investment capital needed. Check my signature.

Someone should remind Seyi Makinde that he is a pathetic fellow who play politics foolishly. The way he use media will one day hurt him badly.


He play politics so tey he contact Corona Virus, something that can be avoided!

Nice one, Arakurin!

Those bunch of greedy politicians are all playing politics with the whole Coronavirus issue. The politicians don’t care about you, it’s time we stop making excuses for there failures. Look at the way other African country handle this virus and you will see the difference is clear. Bunch of failed old men.

sweetsell:
I never knew Akeredolu was such a coward. I tot his igbo wife would ha e given him chest beating antics to boast at the FG. Kudos to Makinde.

The Southwest governors are all ass licker. They don’t care about us. They will rather protect the interest of there messiah than their own citizens. Sold out politicians.

Nah, the only governor in SW. Others are just planted there and still take others from their political father. They are mere caretaker. They can’t make decisions themselves not running it through the greedy man in the bullion van.

Big Shame on Seyi Makinde.. rice you no give people , the one FG gave you bad mouthed it... how can 1800 50 kg bags of rice all be bad just because of just a single bag he displayed for camera.. all state Governors had already distributed palliative even before the customs rice came in, Seyi gave out nothing


.

Those rice are bad, Solo Makinde must be FORCED to return the rice.

trutht828:


Still, you are a dispensible useless pawn on buhari's chess board. . Northerners received money, while southwest received rice that custom said is poisoned for human consumption. . That's how much value buhari places on your Hailing.

Rich people in South East are giving their people fresh rice and not poisoned rice from custom.

And to think you even still came here to hail your receipt of the rice like a mental slave. Did you sit down for once to ask yourself why the rice wasn't sent to the north? .

Imagine yourself rejoicing for being a mental slave. What a situation!

Says who?, anyway if na true, which I very much doubt, their blodas in my hood are desperately hungry, they need help ASAP.

This kind of rice will be well certified before its gets to Aso Rock but not with the downtrodden masses.This rubbish can never happen in civilised clime but only in a country like Nigeria wherein "Buharimaniacs are of the conviction that Nigeria is now legitimately the property of the president. The rest of us are here simply by his grace & generosity." https://opinion.premiumtimesng.com/2018/08/21/buharimaniacs-and-buharideens-by-femi-aribisala/

You can support a clueless president but never allow senseless political sentiments to becloud your sense of sound judgement.

oga nor die ontop the matter.. Na customs release the rice from their store... Nor be buhari kitchen them comot am nd he is not the one to inspect the rice either... The the state government or customs suppose check which is what they did... In a grain store, I'll always find some spoilt grains... It is u that is being clouded by politics, that is why u are failing to reason normal...
