Sadiya Umar Farouq, the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, has said that she has forgiven those who accused her of hiding COVID-19 palliatives meant for the poor.

Farouq stated this while fielding questions from journalists in Gusau on Monday.

“I’m aware many people have made various spurious allegations and accusations against my person and my ministry over the way we distributed Federal Government palliatives to cushion the effect of COVID-19.

“I have always said I am carrying out my duties and responsibilities to the best of my ability and with fairness to all parts of the country.

“Now that they have realized their mistakes, l will only pray to God to forgive us all,” she maintained.

NAN reports that the minister had earlier paid homage to the Emir of Gusau, Alhaji Ibrahim Bello, where the monarch appealed to the federal government to take a second look at the security situation in the state.

“The federal government should support the state in opening more access roads to expose the hideouts of criminal elements and give security operatives easier access to counter all terrorists.

“We should also be considered for more federal appointments because currently, we only have one permanent federal secretary.

“I want to assure you that we will continue to support all federal government programmes geared towards improving the wellbeing of the people,” the emir said.

There's nothing to justify the hoarding of palliative.

Nigerians only got woken

I agree with her this time.

Shame on the state governors for hoarding the palliative items

Our problems in this country are just few and can be resolved without any violence...

North is stil our major problem, those jihadists still think violence is the answer to every problem..that's the height of it all...

no be by gra gra., they threaten everything even their fellow cows.

Silly Governors have made you a saint now

Madam, don't try to fool us. This is CACOVID, the effort of the private sector to help in the time of need.
WHERE DID YOU KEEP THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT'S OWN? CACOVID is Coalition Against Covid-19.

Some of us will be vindicated ultimately by those that tag us wrongly out of hypocrisy

You know what? You're 100% right. The north has been burning BRT buses for a week now. They have been killing and burning police officers for a week now. In fact, El-Rufai ordered the slaughtering of police officers in Rivers State.

The CA COVID 19 pallatives looted are private sector donations.

We are yet to see Federal Government pallatives

What about the money distributed to poorest of the poor?

She distributed the money herself to audio poorest of the poor.

btw, Cocovid or whatever it's called didn't come from the federal government but the billions donated by Dangote and co.

She was the one who donated the expired rice which our heartless governors were so happy to distribute while Oyo state governor milked it for political purposes.

Accusers have forgiven you too.

The expired rice,
audio school feeding program and distribution of audio 20k

Where is the one from the federal government? This one is private donations. What did you do with the money from the federal government?

Please don't hide under these incidences.

This is CACOVID palliatives, a private sector initiative.

Where Is the FG palliative?

In 2014 the cow in aso rock led a protest against GEJ's government,u know how it turned, compared to the one under this present administration which led to bloodshed for the first since the existence of democracy ...arguing with u northerners , can be downgrading, abeg shift

For God to forgive us all; I will say a Big Amen �� bcoz personally i doubted ya sincerity during Covid-19 palliative distributions. The way she mentioned those figures then, one would surely thinks it was just audio talks.
Anyway, on this topic, you’re hereby vindicated.

Forgive?

As in Jesus Christ?

She thinks because we found covid palliatives exonerates her for feeding inexistent school children during lockdown with over 2billion naira?

Crooks!

Shameless mistress

Wether expired or not isn't the contention now, Was it distributed or not is the issue! Give kudos to who deserves it. She's been vindicated

A Pick pocketer is a saint among Armed Robbers. That's how she is among the corrupt governors. They are all shameless thieves.

She wasn't the one that distributed what was looted, according to the governors.

It was under Federal govt supervision. Besides, Governors never made this statement you are attributing to them.

The governors said it was never under their supervision and that it's a private sector initiative.

Madam this is cacovid private sector initiative

Where is fed government own covid which you were distributing expired rice

Secondly you refuse to submit the names of those who benefited from the cash disbursement to the poor citing noi law. Even when the house of representatives and serap requested for it. That shows you have something to hide

Lastly explain how you spent billions feeding children in their parents house.

Not under Fed govt supervision? Please Link me with such news, I may be missing out. Osun govt Statement differ from this your claim

Please they should allow the poor citizens to distribute the palliatives properly.
Enough of APC deception.

Lol. See her thief face.

What has CACOVID donations got to do with Federal Government palliative?

She must think that everyone else is as uninformed and easily deceived as her hanger-ons and praise singers.


Disastrous minister of disaster affairs.

An ipod pig will always shoot itself in the foot.

2014 protest never had any bloodshed. It was a mature protest. The purpose was clear and they didn't lose focus. It was sincerely for national interest.
And they called it off shortly. It wasn't hijacked by hoodlums.

See how your filthy protest has turned into every shade of evil.
