Jigawa State Governor Umar Namadi paid an unscheduled visit to several Ramadan feeding centers in the Dutse Local Government Area, uncovering shocking instances of mismanagement and neglect.

The visit was intended to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of the programme, which aims to provide food for

vulnerable residents across the state.

The Ramadan feeding programme, approved by the State Executive Council, has a budget of over ₦4.8 billion, with

funding shared between the state government and local governments.

However, some centers were found to be failing in resource management and hygiene practices, prompting the

governor’s strong disapproval.During his inspection, Namadi expressed disappointment and frustration at the level of

mismanagement and neglect he witnessed.

“I am disappointed, but not surprised, by the level of mismanagement and neglect I have seen today,” he stated. “It is

unacceptable that some individuals would seek to cheat and deprive our people of the benefits they deserve.”The

governor emphasized the need for transparency, fairness, and proper hygiene in food distribution, urging those

responsible for the shortcomings to address them immediately.

He also reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to ensuring that all Ramadan feeding centers function effectively,

providing services with dignity and respect.Namadi’s visit was a clear indication of his administration’s commitment

to accountability and transparency.

By taking a hands-on approach, the governor is sending a strong message that mismanagement and neglect will not

be tolerated.The Ramadan feeding programme is a vital initiative that aims to provide food for residents across the

287 wards of the 27 local government areas. However, the programme’s success is dependent on effective

management and oversight.Key Phrases: Jigawa Ramadan, Umar Namadi
