IDP To Receive Custom Sized Rice and Food Stuff.

President Muhammudu Buhari has directed the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, to transfer relief items in various customs warehouses to designated officials for onward distribution to Internally Displaced Persons, IDPs.

The Service Public Relations Officer, Wale Adeniyi, disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja on Sunday.

According to Mr. Adeniyi, the Comptroller General has set up a national committee that would coordinate and manage the movement and the transfer of seized relief items to give effect to the President’s directive.

He said the relief items currently in government warehouses for distribution to the IDPs included goods that had been forfeited to the Federal Government of Nigeria.

“It is important to stress that these items are only those that have been condemned properly in the competent court of law and have been forfeited to the Federal Government of Nigeria.

“They include food items like rice, vegetable oil, spaghetti and essential items like soap, used clothing materials, mosquito nets, beddings and others,’’ he said.

Mr. Adeniyi said that members of the committee were drawn from Customs Service, Army, Air Force, Police, Immigration Service and the EFCC.

TRUMP PROMISES NIGERIANS 'NIGERIA MUST GO BAGS' IF HE WINS

“IF I WIN, YOU ALL LEAVE”
American Billionaire and Republican Presidential
Front-runner, Donald Trump, has shot a subtle
warning to the Nigerian Community in the United
States, after he said all Nigerians would be made
to leave the country “when he becomes
President”.
He made the “threat” during a rally at Wichita,
Kansas. According to Donald Trump, Nigerians
ad Mexicans have taken all the jobs meant for
honest hard working Americans.
“To Make America great again, we need to get rid
of the Muslims, Mexicans and the Africans,
especially the Nigerians. They take all our jobs,
jobs meant for honest hard working Americans,
and when we don’t give them the jobs, the Muslims
blow us up” , Trump said.
“We need to get the Africans out. Not the blacks,
the Africans. Especially the Nigerians. They’re
everywhere. I went for a rally in Alaska and met
just one African in the entire state. Where was he
from? Nigeria! He’s in Alaska taking our jobs.
They’re in Houston taking our jobs. Why can’t they
stay in their own country? Why? I’ll tell you why.
Because they are corrupt. Their Governments are
so corrupt, they rob the people blind and bring it
all here to spend. And their people run away and
come down here and take our jobs! We can’t have
that! If I become president, we’ll send them all
home. We’ll build a wall at the Atlantic Shore. Then
maybe we’ll re-colonize them because obviously
they did not learn a damn thing from the British!”
His speech was met with raucous applause by
the 10,000 strong predominantly Caucasian
audience. What this portends for Nigeria in the
event of the Trump victory is still unclear, but
the Nigerian Ambassador to the US has so far
allayed fears of all Nigerians living in the USA,
although we gather he has secretly packed his
bags and is set to move to Mexico or Canada if
Trump becomes President.
