It appears that Borno state
government might need the support of more individuals and corporate
organisations to continue to sustain the daily feeding of over 500,000
Internally Displace Persons (IDP) in the state.

The Deputy Governor of Borno
state, Alhaji Mustapha Zanna while receiving relief materials (worth about N7
million naira) from Nigeria Flour Mills today, appealed to the National
Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to take over the daily feeding of the IDPs

He said that the state government
provides three square meals to the IDPs at the camps and that the current
hardship in the country has also forced those residing outside into feeding at
the camps. Zanna further said that the
exercise was eating deep into government purse, especially with the dwindling
resources.

He said taking over the feeding
by NEMA would enable the government concentrate on other areas such as
provision of welfare, medical care and other essential services to the people.
