Palliatives: Governor Donates 300,000 Bags of Rice for Distribution to Less Privileged

August 22, 2023 • 1 min read

Borno State governor, Babagana Zulum, on Tuesday, provided palliatives for 300,000 households, supplementing the effort of the federal government to aid 100,000 households.

Zulum made the announcement on Tuesday as he began distributing palliatives to disadvantaged homes

Zulum said, “Today we are here to inaugurate the distribution of palliatives to 100,000 less privileged people in Borno under the presidential initiative in addition to the 300,000 households that would benefit from the state palliative.”

He explained that Borno’s case was peculiar since returnees still did not have full access to their farmlands after some parts had been destroyed by insurgency.

Zulum said that every home in rural parts of the LGAs hit by the insurgency would benefit, noting that 2,000 vulnerable people would be chosen in each ward for the palliative, notably in metropolitan places like Maiduguri.
