The Federal Government has begun selling 30,000 metric tonnes of milled rice to civil servants in Sokoto State at a subsidized rate.
Each 50kg bag is available for ₦40,000, providing relief amid rising food prices. This initiative aims to ease the economic burden on workers and ensure food security.
Officials say the distribution process will be closely monitored to prevent hoarding and ensure fair access.
Sokoto State civil servants are encouraged to take advantage of this subsidy as part of broader government efforts to address the cost of living crisis. More details to follow.
