The group which claimed to be non-partisan and out to protect the interest of Ekiti people, said only the state was excluded from the school feeding programme during the flag off.
In a statement, the group said, “We do not buy the state government excuse that the federal government deliberately shut out the state from this programme for political reasons.
“Over time, the present administration in Ekiti has proved to have a way of sniffing out information from the federal authority, why was this particular one missed? The Ekiti government owe her citizens some explanations on why the State refused participating in a national programme that was alleged by Senator Babafemi Ojudu to have been in its planning stage since last year September.”
“We can’t but wonder why the state government only concerned itself with clarifying why the state wasn’t represented at the flag-off ceremony but tactically ignored the exclusion of the state in the school feeding program.
The group stressed that indigenes of the state are interested in knowing why the state was not listed among the benefitting states and why no delegate from the state was sighted in Abuja for the funfair.
“We are aware that a process must have led to the eventual flag off of the programme, the big question is, was Ekiti State represented in this build up towards the Launching of the School feeding program in Abuja? If not, why,” the group queried. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
