Ministry Of Environment Receives N5billion From Presidency For Northern Rural Support

Owing to the failure of President Goodluck Jonathan coming out with a strategy of managing the crisis ravaging the country’s economy ranging from cash crunch and now fuel scarcity, Nigerians have labeled President Goodluck Jonathan names attributing the current state of the economy to his bad leadership and administration.

In a recent update from the Nation, President Jonathan has released the sum of N5billion to the ministry of environment to purchase a clean cooking stove for the women in the rural area of the Northern state of Nigeria. Reports say the total project cost is estimated to be N9.2billion, with the project set to be inaugurated today by the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Report, according to the minister shows that the project is carried out to discourage the women in the northern part of Nigeria from using firewood to cook which she said is the possible cause of desertification in the area.
