Hundreds of Non-Governmental Organizations posing as owners of orphanages besiege the Nigeria Customs Service Command in Niger state when they heard bags of rice would be shared to IDPs and Orphanage homes.

As at 11 am on Friday morning, out of over 50 applicants screened, only 15 were verified to operate genuine orphanage homes. “Before we came, we had sent intelligence to investigate the addresses provided by these orphanages and we discovered that most of them were not orphanages. “Those that came claiming to have come from Government House were refused. Government knows NGOs that deals with orphans, so they should direct us to them or ask them to come.

“We discovered one of the addressed submitted was a religious institution which does welfare and assist the less privileged but the committee essence is to deal directly with the operators of these orphanages and IDP homes, we do not want intermediaries, we want to give it to them directly.
