Residents in Bayelsa Raid Palliative Warehouse

On Sunday, residents of Yenagoa reportedly broke into and looted a warehouse containing palliatives. The 2022 flood relief supplies were stored in a warehouse in the Kpansia region.

However, it has yet to be determined if the subsidy palliatives President Bola Tinubu sent to states to mitigate the effects of the subsidy removal were also stolen by the starving locals.

The Bayelsa State Emergency Management Agency confirmed the warehouse invasion and stated that it occurred around 7:45 p.m. on Sunday, almost an hour after the Director-General, Walamam Igrubia, and some BYSEMA personnel had departed the warehouse.

The Agency utilized the warehouse to store food during the state’s 2022 disaster, according to BYSEMA. In a statement, BYSEMA condemns the invasion of a warehouse by unidentified individuals and the attempt by the state’s opposition party to politicize the incident.
