Title: Kebbi State Government Clears the Air on Viral Ramadan Palliative Video A recent video circulating on social media has got people talking about the distribution of Ramadan palliatives in Kebbi State. The video claimed that a staff member of the Dandi Local Government Education Authority, Abduljalal Usman, received only a small portion of the palliatives meant for him. According to the video, he received only a plate of rice and a plate of maize. However, the Kebbi State Government has come out to debunk this claim, saying it's a staged drama orchestrated by political opponents. Investigations carried out by the government revealed that the man featured in the video is a known psychiatric patient who was manipulated by desperate politicians to discredit the governor's Ramadan palliative initiative. This initiative, which has been widely welcomed by beneficiaries across the state, aims to ease the economic burden of Ramadan on residents. According to the government, the palliatives procured were rice and millet, and not maize as claimed in the viral video. At the time the video was recorded, the palliative allocation for Dandi Local Government Area had not yet arrived at the council headquarters. It seems the video is part of a broader campaign to tarnish the image of the administration ahead of the 2027 political season. The Kebbi State Government's intervention programme has been widely applauded by beneficiaries, and it's clear that this has unsettled the opposition. It's worth noting that the Ramadan period is a time of great spiritual significance for Muslims in Nigeria, and many families rely on palliatives like these to make ends meet. So, it's unfortunate that some individuals would resort to spreading false information to undermine a genuine effort to help. In conclusion, the Kebbi State Government has assured its citizens that the distribution of palliatives is genuine and has been widely welcomed. It's up to us to verify information before sharing it on social media and to support initiatives that genuinely aim to make a difference in our communities.
