Workers to register for N40,000 rice

The Federal Government has concluded plans to sell a 50kg bag of rice at N40,000 to public servants with a view to alleviating the food crisis in the nation and its effects on Nigerians.
The Federal Ministry of Special Duties and Inter-governmental Affairs disclosed this in a letter signed by the Director of Human Resources of the Ministry, Jaiyesimi Abimbola on Monday.
The letter requested all interested staff members to complete a Google form on the OHCSF website and submit it to the director of human resources for endorsement.
It also noted that payment for and the distribution of the rice would be coordinated by designated offices while the chairman, Joint Union Council of the ministry, would serve as an observer for transparency reasons in the course of the exercise.
Recall that Federal Government had recently said it had created centres across the country where Nigerians could purchase 50kg bags of rice for N40,000.
