The Ogun State government is crying out over what it calls the ongoing attempt by opposition politicians to rubbish efforts by the state to distribute Palliatives.
It says the state and federal governments are working to provide relief to the vulnerable people to cushion the effects of the recent subsidy removal.
The state government warned Nigerians to be wary of the antics of politicians who have been going about to rubbish the palliative programmes put in place to cater for the ‘poorest of the poor”.
The government was reacting to recent videos on social media.
In a statement signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the State Governor, Lekan Adeniran, the Ogun State government said some agents of the opposition have resorted to media blackmail to discredit the administration of Governor Dapo Abiodun.
The statement noted that the federal government was unambiguous in saying the palliative is not meant for everybody, but for the most vulnerable people in the society.
The statement expressed surprise at the man’s claim that the bag of rice he displayed was meant for his entire CDA.
