The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the rice comprising 10kg, 25kg and 50kg are distributed to the six local government areas of Edo-North Senatorial District.
Speaking during the distribution to various local governments on Wednesday, Oshiomhole said the donation is part of palliative measures for the people of the district.
He admonished Christians and Nigerians to sue for peace and love during the celebration.
“This rice is not for party members alone, mechanics, tailors, and vigilante groups should also benefit from the kind gesture.
“I will never take your support for granted and I assure you I will continue to provide leadership for a better Afemai land.”
The former governor who acknowledged that things were tough pleaded with Nigerians to exercise patience with the present administration as things would get better.
“I am aware that things are tough and things are tougher at the grassroots. Continue to have faith in the APC-led Federal Government and Nigeria will be great again.
He, however, wished everyone a merry Christmas and a happy New Year in advance.Tap Here to Read the Full Story ▶▶
