We Are Not Beggars, Feed Your Children With Your Palliatives – Chairman Blasts Dapo Abiodun, Tinubu

A man who identifies himself as the chairman of Ogun State’s Shokeye Community Development Area has criticized Governor Dapo Abiodun for the state’s palliative poor and insulting care program.

In a video trending online, the man was seen calling out Ogun State’s Governor, Dapo Abiodun, for the poor distribution of rice as palliatives. He also, in the same vein, knocked Bola Tinubu with words, furiously sending Dapo Abiodun back to his principal (Tinibu) over the distribution of palliatives.


He said, “I am the chairman of Shokeye for now. I am the chairman of Shokaye CDA. I was just at home now, and they brought this to me as palliative for the whole of Shokeye Estate. On this estate, we have 147 houses with families and tenants living there.

I am confused now. I don’t know how to share this with 147 households in Shokeye Estate. If you guys are the government, I am talking to you now,Dapo Abiodun. If you people cannot do something good, don’t do it at all. We are not hungry; we are not beggars, so we don’t need your rice as palliative. This is not even one bag. This is not up to an eighth of a bag of rice.

I’d love to return this to Dapo Abiodun so he can return it to his principal, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who sent it to him. They should give it to their children; we don’t need this. If you want to give it to us,do it well. Shokeye Estate refuses to be insulted.”
