endbag governance protests that started across the country on Thursday.
18
00:00:56,079 –> 00:00:56,560

00:00:56,640 –> 00:00:59,079
Speaker 1: Video press statement said that the first batchel of the
20
00:00:59,119 –> 00:01:01,759
bands of rice place yet started earlier this year in
21
00:01:01,799 –> 00:01:04,200
the month of May with one billion Ira funding from
22
00:01:04,239 –> 00:01:06,680
the Edo State government and the second batchel of the
23
00:01:06,719 –> 00:01:09,680
Balliets were funded with another one billion Mira by the
24
00:01:09,760 –> 00:01:14,239
state government. The chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria

can Edo State Chapter, Apostle Erecuono Whuiki, said the invaded
26
00:01:19,120 –> 00:01:21,920
residents where bouts of rice were looted by hoodlooms in
27
00:01:22,000 –> 00:01:25,480
Aurora in the Copa Orclocal government area of Dul States
28
00:01:25,519 –> 00:01:28,000
is owned by a vendor contracted by the Dul State
29
00:01:28,040 –> 00:01:31,159
and implementation for it is for the Christian Feeding program.
30
00:01:31,879 –> 00:01:34,560
He stated that the Christian Feeding Program which is in
31
00:01:34,640 –> 00:01:38,959
its seconference of distributing relieve materials to vulnerable Christian group
32
00:01:39,120 –> 00:01:42,040
was funded by the Edo State government with two billion nera.
33
00:01:42,840 –> 00:01:45,680
According to him, there is a very important issue to
34
00:01:45,760 –> 00:01:48,400
correct a wrong notion that is circulating that the Rise
35
00:01:48,519 –> 00:01:51,719
being distributed by the state government is Rise supplied by
36
00:01:51,719 –> 00:01:56,239
the federal government and revived. This is missingformation. It is
37
00:01:56,280 –> 00:01:59,879
a very wrong notion that needs to be corrected. Meanwhile,
38
00:02:00,079 –> 00:02:02,480
the state government, in a press release signed by the
39
00:02:02,519 –> 00:02:06,719
Commissioner of Information and Orientation, christ Nehikhare, said the ad
40
00:02:06,920 –> 00:02:10,400
State Government has received information about the looting of bats
41
00:02:10,400 –> 00:02:13,879
of Rise from unidentified troupe and private residences in parts
42
00:02:13,919 –> 00:02:17,360
of Bending City in the work of the endbad governance protests.
43
00:02:17,919 –> 00:02:20,639
The videos making the realms are said to have emanated
44
00:02:20,680 –> 00:02:23,759
from the Aurora axis of Equoba Heal Bending City and
45
00:02:23,879 –> 00:02:27,360
government does not have a warehouse in that location. The
46
00:02:27,439 –> 00:02:32,000
government supports the vulnerable with relief materials through religious organizations,
47
00:02:32,000 –> 00:02:36,960
particularly the Christian Association of Nigeria Can, the Pentecostal Fellowship
48
00:02:37,000 –> 00:02:40,400
of Nigeria and the Adored State Muslims Bill Bring Welfare Board.
49
00:02:41,159 –> 00:02:44,639
The state government does not keep any relief material by itself,
50
00:02:44,680 –> 00:02:48,000
but reaches out to the people through these channels. We
51
00:02:48,080 –> 00:02:51,159
will not put the static past the Old Progresses Congress,
52
00:02:51,159 –> 00:02:55,879
a SEC which is spreading malitias contents to scoptive political points.
53
00:02:56,439 –> 00:02:59,680
This condemnable action is intended to cause chariers in the
54
00:02:59,680 –> 00:03:03,280
state and the PC is discouraged from such a global practice.
55
00:03:03,960 –> 00:03:06,960
The public is enjoined to this regard the malitia’s message
56
00:03:07,000 –> 00:03:09,400
that these people are trying to send with the video.
57
00:03:10,199 –> 00:03:13,199
We want to once again old protesters not to attackle
58
00:03:13,319 –> 00:03:15,919
destroy the property of others as they go about their
59
00:03:15,960 –> 00:03:18,479

00:04:59,199 –> 00:05:03,399
I don’t go by to people think you learned to
86
00:05:03,399 –> 00:05:06,560
their house. The people are taking it to their house.
87
00:05:06,800 –> 00:05:11,319
They are shared their rice. They are taking learning to
88
00:05:11,439 –> 00:05:15,959
their hands. Look at them survivor or the few cares.
89
00:05:17,759 –> 00:05:24,040
This is about the fiftures. Yes, I have look at
90
00:05:24,079 –> 00:05:27,480
it all the move to the book, to the book
91
00:05:28,480 –> 00:05:33,839
I did just then a couplet probably look at it.
92
00:05:35,319 –> 00:05:39,279
Look at people traveling for rice, scably for rice.
93
00:05:40,240 –> 00:05:46,639
Speaker 4: Look at this what happened this morning? This rise are
94
00:05:46,680 –> 00:05:53,680
being contracted out to logistic company that helped to circulate it.
95
00:05:55,600 –> 00:06:01,120
Now the circulation has been even as yesterday, people receive
96
00:06:01,279 –> 00:06:06,319
consignment of this rice. However, just yesterday when one of
97
00:06:06,360 –> 00:06:10,800
the truck was supplying down from a coma, he had
98
00:06:10,839 –> 00:06:14,199
an issue of breakdown. There was a break vehicular breakdown
99
00:06:14,199 –> 00:06:17,720
on the way. So I sat eight am this morning
100
00:06:18,360 –> 00:06:21,800
I received the news that over two hundred trucks are
101
00:06:21,839 –> 00:06:25,199
successfully supplied. The one of our truck had a breakdown
102
00:06:27,240 –> 00:06:31,560
and they just arrived Nears at eight am as a
103
00:06:31,639 –> 00:06:35,759
result of the breakdown on the way tire issue. So
104
00:06:35,800 –> 00:06:39,759
I gave an instruction to the logistic guard that is
105
00:06:39,800 –> 00:06:42,480
supposed to help us supply this rice to seven days
106
00:06:42,480 –> 00:06:48,519
adventices latter descent. What do you call it vulnerable children,
107
00:06:48,639 –> 00:06:51,000
I mean of an age widow and or. I told
108
00:06:51,079 –> 00:06:55,920
him you cannot be supplying rice during protest. We’re already
109
00:06:55,920 –> 00:07:00,160
at risk. We wanted to prevent this. However, I’ve who
110
00:07:00,199 –> 00:07:04,360
got into this point find a safe keeping somewhere to
111
00:07:04,480 –> 00:07:07,959
keep it safe so that as soon as the protests
112
00:07:08,000 –> 00:07:12,399
died down, everything returns to norm the supply can continue.
113
00:07:13,040 –> 00:07:17,800
It was an attend for them to save the rice. Incidentally,
114
00:07:18,279 –> 00:07:21,000
they had to contact one of our rise vendors. Like
115
00:07:21,079 –> 00:07:25,519
mister Chamer was saying, we interviewed defferend local rise vendors
116
00:07:25,560 –> 00:07:28,360
from a door state, and we source this rise from
117
00:07:28,399 –> 00:07:32,120
the local markets. So one of the rise vendors who
118
00:07:32,199 –> 00:07:35,240
have one of our our places our house where she
119
00:07:35,399 –> 00:07:37,399
usually do the rebarding because they have to buy a
120
00:07:37,399 –> 00:07:41,839
fifty kg bag from their markets and rebud into our tankgs.
121
00:07:41,920 –> 00:07:44,959
Not a secret thing, is an open stuff that has
122
00:07:45,000 –> 00:07:50,160
been ongoing, screted agents and others aware. So I had
123
00:07:50,199 –> 00:07:53,519
to call the risvendo and say, please man, this truck
124
00:07:53,720 –> 00:07:56,839
just a ride because of the collaborakdown last night. I
125
00:07:56,839 –> 00:07:59,959
would not allow them this to do thrice. Why prot
126
00:08:00,040 –> 00:08:03,079
test is ongoing, Please let them keep it at your
127
00:08:03,079 –> 00:08:06,639
place usually do rebarkin there of the rights you supply
128
00:08:06,759 –> 00:08:10,360
to us, havingly approved as one of our vendors, please
129
00:08:10,399 –> 00:08:13,079
can they keep it in your place for safe keeping.
130
00:08:13,680 –> 00:08:16,240
As soon as the protest is over, everything returns to
131
00:08:16,319 –> 00:08:21,959
nom we will now finally circulate it to the different
132
00:08:22,040 –> 00:08:25,120
groups that are supposed to receive it. So it took
133
00:08:25,120 –> 00:08:27,879
time for me to convince us, please so in an
134
00:08:27,959 –> 00:08:31,399
attempt for us to take their rights for safekeeping, that
135
00:08:31,600 –> 00:08:32,600
was when the.
136
00:08:32,600 –> 00:08:36,919
Speaker 2: Product was attacked by coud loans.
137
00:08:37,919 –> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 4: So that was exactly what happened this morning. So where
138
00:08:41,000 –> 00:08:45,000
it was is not exactly a government warehouse. It is
139
00:08:45,039 –> 00:08:48,159
the warehouse belonging. It is the house belonging to one
140
00:08:48,240 –> 00:08:52,840
of these suppliers and suppliers rights for this distribution.
141
00:08:54,879 –> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 5: That is the very important issue to correct a wrong
142
00:08:57,960 –> 00:09:02,600
motion that is circulating that the rights being distributed by
143
00:09:02,600 –> 00:09:07,159
the state governments is rice supplied by federal government and
144
00:09:07,279 –> 00:09:10,919
rebuked and is be circulated by the state government. This
145
00:09:11,080 –> 00:09:14,720
is misinformation, is a very wrong notion and it needs
146
00:09:14,759 –> 00:09:21,960
to be corrected. Much earlier this year, the governor himself
147
00:09:22,279 –> 00:09:26,679
met with the Christian Association of Nangeria in this room
148
00:09:27,000 –> 00:09:30,840
and the Chancellery Office of the Catholic Church and told
149
00:09:30,919 –> 00:09:36,000
us that the need to reach out to the hungry,
150
00:09:36,679 –> 00:09:41,440
the poor who are bearing the hardship of the economic
151
00:09:42,440 –> 00:09:49,120
downtown in the country. He discussed with us that he
152
00:09:49,240 –> 00:09:55,159
wants to reach the poor with food palliatives. Discussed at
153
00:09:55,240 –> 00:09:59,200
length with Christian leaders who were here, including officers of Khan.
154
00:10:00,039 –> 00:10:03,679
Immediately after admitting, an implementation committee for the feed the
155
00:10:03,759 –> 00:10:06,759
program was set up in this room and am the
156
00:10:06,840 –> 00:10:10,559
chairman of that committee that was earlier.
157
00:10:10,240 –> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 2: In March this year.
158
00:10:13,440 –> 00:10:16,159
Speaker 5: Immediately after it was set up, the committee went to
159
00:10:16,240 –> 00:10:21,200
work and uh designed the program to read the poor
160
00:10:22,399 –> 00:10:25,759
with food palliatives. We also had data from the state
161
00:10:25,799 –> 00:10:29,720
governments showing the poverty map of the state where the
162
00:10:29,759 –> 00:10:33,120
hungry are located. And it was now our responsibility in
163
00:10:33,159 –> 00:10:36,360
the church to determine the churches that are located in
164
00:10:36,399 –> 00:10:42,399
those communities through whom the poor hungry can be reached
