COVID-19: : Kwara PDP, APC trade blame over palliatives

Kwara state Peoples Democratic Party and ruling All Progressives Congress are trading blames over distribution of palliative materials to cushion the effect of the State Government stay-at-home directive.

PDP spokesperson in the state Tunde Ashaolu alleged the Government’s action smacked of insensitivity to the plight of the people “It is sad and unfortunate that the State government would consider party affiliation in the distribution of palliatives – most of which were donated by corporate bodies and philanthropic individuals – to cushion the effects of the lockdown on the less privileged members of the society. This is height of insensitivity to the plight of Kwaran masses.

“We implore the Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq-led APC government to admit its partisanship, failure and irresponsibility in the distribution of the palliatives and should ensure that, going forward, the materials and cash donations get to the poor and the needy whose daily survival has been threatened.”APC spokesperson in the state Tajudeen Aro in a statement, said PDP has ceaselessly employed socio-political tactics to devalue the government of the APC in the state.

It is in the same light that we view the attempt to discredit the governor before the public for an honest and sincere action to target the very poor who are the worst hit by the government’s directive to stay at home as part of measures to curb the spread of the deadly Coronavirus disease. “It beats our imagination why the distinguished and prominent politicians could not team up with the Kwara state government to face this common enemy
