Shock As MINISTER Divert Rice Meant For Flood Victims – See How He Was EXPOSED
A scandal of epic proportions is unfolding in Edo State, Nigeria, where the Minister for Niger Delta, Abubakar Momoh, has been accused of hoarding and diverting trucks of rice meant for flood victims to support the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship campaign. The federal government had sent the rice to provide relief to communities devastated by recent floods, but instead, Momoh allegedly stockpiled the supplies and distributed them to APC campaign coordinators across the state.
Sources familiar with the situation revealed that the rice was meant to alleviate the suffering of displaced families, who have been left without food, shelter, or livelihoods due to the devastating floods. However, instead of receiving the much- needed aid, the flood victims have been left to suffer while the APC campaign benefits from the diversion of resources.
The alleged diversion has sparked outrage among flood victims, who have been waiting desperately for relief. Community leaders and flood victims are now threatening to stage protests, accusing the federal government and the APC of ignoring their plight in favor of political gamesmanship. The situation has become increasingly dire, with many flood victims facing starvation and disease due to the lack of aid.
The Movement for Democracy, a pro- democracy group, has condemned the alleged misuse of public resources for political gain, calling for an investigation into the diversion of aid. The group’ s coordinator, Osaze Samuel, stated that the people of Edo deserve better and urged President Bola Tinubu to step in and ensure that relief reaches the intended beneficiaries.
This scandal highlights the challenges faced by vulnerable communities in Nigeria, who are often exploited for political gain. The alleged diversion of aid meant for flood victims is a stark reminder of the need for accountability and transparency in governance. The people of Edo State demand justice and relief, and it is imperative that the federal government takes immediate action to address their plight.
The situation has also raised questions about the role of political leaders in Nigeria and their commitment to serving the people. The alleged actions of Minister Momoh and the APC campaign coordinators have brought shame to the party and undermined trust in government. It is essential that those responsible are held accountable and that measures are put in place to prevent such abuses of power in the future.
