Hajiya Sadiya Umar Farouk, the Minister for Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, has said that she chosen to forgive those who accused her of hiding palliatives meant for the masses.

Farouk stated this in Gusau on Monday, while paying homage to the Emir of Gusau, Alhaji Ibrahim Bello at his palace.

“I am aware many people have made various spurious allegations and accusations against my person and my ministry over the way we distributed Federal Government palliatives to cushion the effect of COVID-19.”

“I have always said I am carrying out my duties and responsibilities to the best of my ability and with fairness to all parts of the country. Now that they have realized their mistakes, l will only pray to God to forgive us all,” she maintained.
