The Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, on Friday expressed dismay over the ongoing Ramadan feeding programme in the Kano metropolis.
Yusuf expressed his disappointment with the programme during a surprise visit to one of the feeding centres in Gidan Maza, Municipal Local Government Area.
Recall that the state government budgeted over N5 billion for the Ramadan feeding programme.
He, however, expressed dissatisfaction with the conduct of the programme handlers, whom he believes are depriving the intended beneficiaries of the meals.
“We will not accept dishonesty and mismanagement of public resources. It is imperative to note that the allocated funds for this initiative are meticulously documented at each centre” the governor cautioned
The governor conducted the inspection following intelligence reports implying deficiencies in the management of the feeding programme at various centres across the metropolis.
He threatened to deal decisively with any government official found wanting in the misappropriation of the funds earmarked for the programme.
