Kaduna Pupils Eat El-rufai’s Free Food On The Floors Of Their Classrooms (PICS)

The Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, on Monday flagged off free feeding in the state primary schools in what the governor described as a fulfillment of his pledge to provide free education to pupils in Kaduna state. According to him, the free feeding programme is expected to benefit 1.5 million children in over 4,000 pubic primary schools across the state.
Meanwhile Social crusaders and activists from Kaduna, have released pictures to condemn the School feeding initiative maintaining the the program was unnecessary and a charade especially given the state of infrastructure decay in the school which should have been first addressed.
According to a commenter, he said that government of Kaduna should have ’empowered their parents and use the food money to equip the class.’ Another activist Zina Dabo said on twitter; “Seriously @elrufai do you think what these kids need is propaganda slice of yam not chairs? @shehusani @NGRWailers“
According to El-Rufai, the programme is directly creating 17,000 jobs for caterers, who in turn will employ others to support them. “It is an unprecedented undertaking in the state, but one that we solemnly pledge to do during the campaign.
“In seeking to take care of our children we are creating jobs, boosting demand and expanding people to new skills and hygienic standard, and providing extra income.”
The pictures show students in schools without furniture; chairs and tables who were seen eating from the plates across various primary schools in the state. Photos below:

L.E.A. Badarawa. No chairs, no doors, no windows and not enough teachers.

These are the pictures the governor unfortunately doesn’t want you to see. And it ties in with the typical APC leadership style – Ignore the basic essentials you’re supposed to provide, and focus on the cosmetic and unsustainable political gestures that will only earn you quick and easy brownie points from the gullible.
This man couldn’t provide desks, teachers and laboratory infrastructure, he skipped them all for this recurrent expenditure that will do nothing to improve the QUALITY of education in those schools.
This was the exact same way a certain governor employed Twitter shills and media jesters to whitewash his image with endless propaganda for all of 2012, 2013 and 2014, until the crash in oil prices exposed him for the wasteful, shortsighted, and totally CLUELESS leader he really was (‘Oil prices have fallen, so my hands are tied. I can’t pay your salaries. in the mean time, pray for the state. Bye’).
And the same thing looks to play out in Kaduna soon.
