The Osun Food and Relief Committee which is in charge of the food donated by Coalition Against Covid-19 (CACOVID), on Friday said the food items were not distributed up till now because it was waiting for approval from the donor.

The Secretary of the Committee, Alhaji Bayo Jimoh said the committee was still expecting the approval of (CACOVID) and lamented that the warehouse in Ede was looted

He said, “It is not true that the food items were hoarded. The food items can only be distributed after a formal flag-off by the CACOVID Office, Abuja.

“We do not have the authority to distribute the food items without approval from Abuja.

The residents of the state lamented that the food items that were meant to serve as relief during lockdown was kept at the warehouse up till now.
