This is height of insensitivity to the plight of Kwaran masses.

“We implore the Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq-led APC government to admit its partisanship, failure and irresponsibility in the distribution of the palliatives and should ensure that, going forward, the materials and cash donations get to the poor and the needy whose daily survival has been threatened.”APC spokesperson in the state Tajudeen Aro in a statement, said PDP has ceaselessly employed socio-political tactics to devalue the government of the APC in the state.
