The claim by the Gombe State Governor, Inuwa Yahaya, that the state is yet to receive 20 trucks of rice palliatives from it has been rejected by the Federal Government.
The Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris Malagi in an interview with BBC Hausa programme said there is no State where the rice was not delivered.
Stressing that every state Governor has received there allocation, contradicting the Gombe State Governors claim.
“The distribution was made public over two weeks ago, and no other governor has disputed the delivery except from Gombe.”
It will be recalled that the Executive Governor of Gombe State, Inuwa Yahaya, on Tuesday in a meeting with civil society organisations, Organised Labour and the Amalgamated Unions of Traders in Gombe, said the state was yet to receive the federal government rice palliative.
The governor, however, commended the Federal Government for the initiative.
