COVID-19: Oyo residents lament as govt delays distribution of N250m palliative fund - Daily Post Nigeria

worth over 50million Naira from philanthropists and organizations as part of efforts to cushion the effects of lockdown on the citizens.

Our correspondent gathered that some residents, especially traders whose shops and markets were not categorized as nonessential have been asked to close their shops about three weeks ago. Some of the affected traders are those in Aleshinloye market, Ogunpa market, Spare parts market at Araromi Gate, Salvation Army and Oke Parde among others.

Wasiu Rahmon, a ready-made clothes seller at Ogunpa appealed to the state government to distribute what it has received so far, adding that some miscreants have taken the opportunity to perpetrate crimes. “As you can see, I have been at home since then. Even the first day that I went to the shop, they had to use security agents to come and chase us away. We have been at home for two weeks, the government extended the closure of our market for another two weeks, what do we eat. We are just hearing it on the radio what the government has received but, they did not distribute it. Do they want to wait until those things expire? The government needs to call us, those of us that have closed our shops.

We're waiting seyimakinde
