A director in Kaduna
State Ministry of Education, Science and Technology, John Gora, says, the Federal Government’s
Home Grown School Feeding Programme
commenced in the State on the 25th of July 2017.
Gora, who oversees the
programme told newsmen today in Kaduna, that about 800,000 pupils would be fed at
N70 per meal.
According to him, the
government will spend about N56 million daily, N280 million a week and N1.1
billion every month in feeding pupils.
The director said that
out of the 20,146 vendor shortlisted for the programme, only 9,000 would
participate.
Gora said that as soon as
the federal government refunds the remaining balance, the state would commence
the feeding of primary 4-6 pupils.
