I have questions for the Nigerian government… Maybe series of Questions that the mainstream media might not be willing to ask.
1. Where are the palliatives said to have been giving to the state governors?
2. Where is the N5bn naira Tinubu said he had disbursed to the state governors?
3. When are Nigerians going to start getting the money and Rice + maize palliatives?
Maybe, these are the few questions for now.
News headlines :
Angry mobs at the Oja-Oba/Idi-Ape/Isale-Oja axis of Ilorin, East, and West local government areas of Kwara state have hijacked three Toyota Dyanas fully loaded with 10 kilograms of rice bags meant as palliatives to cushion subsidy removal.
There has been discontent within the Ilorin metropolis over the distribution of the said palliatives for quite some time now.

Some analysts claimed that the state government were not in possession of any reliable data to help in the distribution of the palliative.
The ambush occurred on Friday around 6:30 p.m. when three Toyota Dynas, fully loaded with rice passing through the area, attracted the attention of people who attacked the trucks.
The consignment of rice in the three trucks where meant to be delivered to yet-to-be-ascertained communities as their shares of palliative to cushion the effect of fuel subsidy removal.
The scene from the video was quite reminiscent of the COVID-19 siege on a government warehouse along Airport Road Ilorin, where a hungry and angry mob overpowered security personnel at the facility and carted away stashed food.
The three trucks fully loaded with rice on Friday were reportedly emptied by the attackers.
2. Osun State Government has disclosed that it has put security measures in place to curb possible looting of the rice it received from the Federal Government as palliative for the masses due to fuel subsidy removal.
This followed the reported looting of warehouses in Bayelsa state and looting of the palliative received by the state government by some hoodlums.
Did you read the news above from kwara, Osun, Bayelsa where palliatives are being looted.
How can this be a sane country?
Why are these people being wicked and deceptive to Nigerians?
Why would the citizens be allowed to starve to the extent they have to loot what’s meant for them?
Some states reported of Citizens looting Flood disaster Palliative which was already expired?
Atleast, some states like Lagos and few other states have tried doing something like sharing of Rice (5kg bag maximum) to some residents….. I didn’t hear about cash sharing by the way as against what Tinubu’s government said to the media.
Wait a minute…… When is Some states like Anambra state going to start sharing their own rice 🍚 and N5Billion (cus they’re practically ignoring the money part)?
100 days after…. Nigerians are yet to even understand what Tinubu and the state governors are trying to do..
So unfortunate, they knew Nigerians would always move on.. (presumably)
All i can say is…..
This is not really a country….
Shame on wicked leaders..
You removed subsidy on Petrol that affects everyone and replaced it with cups of rice?
How on earth could this be explained?
100 days after, the Governors are yet to do anything and the compromised media ain’t even talking about it.
Good Morning Nigeria 🇳🇬 and Nigerians!
