The Abia State Government says its attention has been drawn to the activities of certain individuals who are illegally collecting monies from Abia citizens, falsely claiming to be agents of the National Home-Grown School Feeding Programme.
The government, in a statement on Wednesday by the Chief Press Secretary to the Abia Governor, Ukoha Njoku Ukoha, informed the general public that the school feeding program in the state is currently not operational.
“Therefore, anyone approaching you for money under the pretense of being associated with this program is attempting to defraud you.
“For accurate and reliable information regarding the status of the school feeding program and enrollment details, please reach out to Dr. Ire Kalu Ire, the Program Manager of the School Feeding Program, in the office of the Wife of the Governor,” the government advised.
The statement also urged the public to disregard any requests for the submission of names of cooks, payment of any amount of money, or release of sensitive personal details.
“Stay vigilant and report any suspicious activities to the police for further action,” it concluded.
