“Governor Ademola Adeleke has restated his commitment to physical and stomach infrastructure as his government commences distribution of rice for the celebration of both the Easter and Eid-l- Fitr.
“The distribution which started in the last 24 hours is billed to cover all major population groups in the state.
“Already, the Christian Association of Nigeria has gotten the allocated rice through its state leadership while the Muslim community are in the process of taking theirs.
