Exactly four days after the invasion of warehouses by angry residents of the FCT, President Bola Tinubu has directed the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike to begin emergency distribution of grains to vulnerable residents.
Tinubu who gave the directive in a memo addressed to the FCT Minister, instructed that a strategic Committee be constituted to ensure a transparent and equitable distribution of the the grains to vulnerable Nigerians through the FCT Emergency Management Agency, FEMA.
The FCT Minister of State, Dr. Mariya Mahmoud said the committee has less than two weeks to carry out the presidential directive.
Dr Mahmoud who expressed disappointment with the area council chairmen for treating the invitation to the maiden strategic stakeholders meeting with levity, warned them against any act that will sabotage the good intention of the president Tinubu.
Mahmoud listed members of the Committee to include: Chairmen of Area Councils, FCT Emergency Management Agency, Traditional Rulers, Department of State Service, Nigeria Police Force, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Faith-based organisations, National Union of Local Government Employees, Nigeria Red Cross Society, Women Associations, Persons with Disability Group, Youth Associations, Principal of Boarding Schools, Civil Society Organisations and the media.
