Subsidized Rice Palliatives: APC is Playing Propaganda with Osun People

OSOGBO – 17/08/2023 – Osunstate.gov.ng

The Attention of Osun state Government has been drawn to a malicious statement written by the opposition tagged “Osun APC TO ADELEKE: Stop Hoarding FG Rice Palliatives for Citizenry.”

The release is purely propaganda by mischief makers in the state.

In a release by the Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Oluomo Kolapo Alimi, the state government informed members of the public that the Federal government approved a total of three thousand bags of rice palliatives to Osun state.

Six hundred bags were loaded per each truck and disbursed through four trailers: making two thousand and four hundred received so far. Out of the five trailers of bags of rice palliative to the state, we are waiting for the completion of the palliative supply before the announcement and distribution.

Members of the public are also informed that the Commissioner of Ministry of Special Duties, Dr B.T Salaam has received four out of the five trailers and the state is awaiting the last batch of six hundred bags of rice palliatives, to complete the three thousand bags earmarked for the state.

The release added that, since receiving the initial bags of rice palliatives, the government through special duties has fashioned out modalities and templates on the distribution of the palliatives.

According to him, “Governor Ademola Adeleke is a passionate and accountable governor who will never hurt or deprive the citizenry of its palliative. The governor is concerned about the welfare of the populace, and will not fail in its delivery.”

“Cushioning the effect of the subsidy is a necessity, our government will not withhold what belongs to the citizenry from them.

“The rice palliatives will be distributed as soon as the last tranche comes into the state by today or tomorrow.

“We assure the good people of Osun that the government of Ademola Adeleke will not deny them of the rice palliatives, and we urge all to disregard the propaganda of the APC.

“This government is a responsible one, we are not hoarding the rice palliatives but waiting for the supply to be completed by the agency of the federal government before we commence distribution.

“Osun people know that the Adeleke family even before being elected into office has always shared thousands of bags of rice to the populace during an emergency. Now in Government, this administration can never and will never divert 2hat belongs to the people”, Hon Alimi stated.
