confused govt. why is the feeding programe in phases & in 18 states for the first phase.what happens to the other 18 states ? parents have never complained to govt tht they cant feed their children,so why not invest this fund into our educational system by equiping schools with world class facilities & empowering teachers with latest teaching skills to enhance pupils performance. 21 Likes 5 Shares |

- 93 billion naira is far less than what Dansuki alone was sharing among his cohorts. Anything wrong in Govt giving directly to the citizen where there will be no bogus contracts and rip off? - There is an adage that says when you remove hunger from the poverty equation, the problem is half solved. - Health is wealth. With children eating good food, their visits to hospitals due to various disease will reduce. - This is a social benefit initiative by the Government to help her citizens some of whom are extremely poor. - This will help school enrollment as this is one other incentive that will make school attractive to kids and in effect aid their learning. - There are other aspects of the 2016 budget that deals with capital projects which includes equipping and furnishing public schools. - Many have complained about how citizens of some countries are benefiting from social welfare package by their Govt, while there is none for Nigerians. What is wrong in Nigeria helping her poor citizens to feed kids who are in Primary 1 to 3? - It is a token, but it will go a long way in alleviating poverty of some citizens. - With the high price of fuel / subsidy removal due to fraud in the system and non availability of forex, consider this as a palliative to cushion the effects of the hike - This initiative will create a snowball effect whereby farmers, food sellers, kitchen utensil suppliers etc will benefit, in an organised fashion. 54 Likes 4 Shares |

amaechi1: Excuse me, this is a WHITE ELEPHANT PROJECT. Anyone that give birth to children let him bear the responsibility of feeding. Let federal, state and local govt be sincere in performing their constitutional responsibilities and pay salaries as at when due. Let this government have a straight financial policy that will encourage investors both within and without. Let them fix electricity and encourage science and technology in providing some raw materials locally. Let them do all these and finally withdraw 100% from education and see whether our children will go to school or not. Whether they will have 3 (balanced) square meal or not. Whether anyone will wait for F.G to house, clothe and feed his wards. Lastly, I believe no one is indigent. Give them work, and an enabling environment to do it, you'll be dazed in a short while with the positive outcome you'll see. Remember, a lazy man deserves no food. So don't come and tell me somebody has graduated and got no job. IT IS A LAME EXCUSE TO ME. THANKS 16 Likes 3 Shares |

amaechi1: In my own case, I have been able to separate hatred for govt from reality. The question is: 1. How long can they sustain this program? 2. What is the cost implication in the next four years? 3. What will be implication if same amount is sincerely channelled towards fixing electricity/ rural roads construction for reliable transportation of agricultural produce which is more beneficial to the people? 4. Why can't government handle governmental businesses and parents; parenting? I don't expect such amount to end in septic tank without any return. Quote me with honest answers. Thanks. 13 Likes |

Nonsense, As Far As Am Concerned, That Project Is More Of A Nothern Project Than That Of A South, Indirectly They Are Encouraging Parents To Give Birth To More Kids For The Wrong Reason. South Dont Need Such In 21st Century, Use That Money To Develop Our Laboratory, Science Is Dying Gradually In Our Secondry Schools 4 Likes |

This same people that have been shouting one chance, asking kids to ask for their meals. Look at their comments up there. Men, some people will die because of hate. Its no a curse, ita a reality. Steadily campaign peomises are being fulfilled. Many riff raffs will see nothing to wail about again, their only option will be exactly what they are doing on this thread now. 13 Likes |

misplaced priority if I should say. For how one do you want to continue helping the poor rather than expunging them from the shackles of poverty. Anyway, let's see how it pans out 6 Likes |

To me it is a total waste. Feeding is a personal thing, it can only make some people richer. It might work well in the north to increase enrollment but not in the East, where you have almost 100% enrollment. This is a northern culture. Provide a good learning environment. Make studying attractive to them through provision of the basic materials as it is obtained in the West , not food. Pay the teachers very well to boost morale. 7 Likes |
