By Emmanuel Awosika
The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Sadiya Umar-Faruk, said she has forgiven detractors who accused her of hiding COVID-19 palliatives.
She made this known while addressing newsmen in Gusau on Monday.
Her words: “I am aware many people have made various spurious allegations and accusations against my person and my ministry over the way we distributed Federal Government palliatives to cushion the effect of Covid-19.
“I have always said I am carrying out my duties and responsibilities to the best of my ability and with fairness to all parts of the country.
“Now that they have realized their mistakes, l will only pray to God to forgive us all.”
Reports that the Minister had concocted a plan to hide Covid-19 palliatives emerged after citizens discovered and looted various warehouses holding the palliatives.
However, she denied the allegations, saying distribution of the palliatives were ongoing prior to the looting of the warehouses.
