In a bid to address the hunger crisis affecting rural communities, the Bayelsa State Government has commenced the distribution of truckloads of rice provided by the Federal Government.
Governor Douye Diri announced the immediate rollout of this initiative, ensuring that the relief reaches those who need it most.
Governor Diri has emphasized the non-partisan nature of this distribution, stating, “This rice has no PDP face, has no APC face. It’s for every Bayelsan. No one should play politics with the distribution.”
In a directive aimed at ensuring fairness and transparency, the governor has stipulated that no political appointee or civil servant is to benefit from the rice allocation.
The governor’s directive underscores the urgency and impartiality of the initiative. By targeting rural communities, the Bayelsa State Government aims to alleviate the severe food shortages that have been exacerbated by recent economic challenges and flooding in the region.
Community leaders and local administrators have been tasked with overseeing the distribution process to ensure that the rice reaches the intended recipients. The government has called on all citizens to support the initiative and report any irregularities to maintain the integrity of the program.
This move by the Bayelsa State Government is seen as a significant step towards addressing the immediate nutritional needs of its population, fostering unity, and reducing the impact of hunger on the most vulnerable groups within the state.
