Mr Christopher Maikalangu, Chairman, Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC) has said that the Federal Government’s palliatives would be distributed equally to the vulnerable persons in the area council without recourse to ethnic, religion or political affiliation.

He gave the assurance at the flag-off of the second batch distribution of the palliatives at the AMAC Town Hall, Apo Resettlement, on Tuesday in Abuja.

He said that the first batch which took place last week was carefully monitored and distributed to residents who were invited from the 12 political wards of the council.

The chairman, who appreciated the President, FCT Minister and the FCT Minister of State for their rapid response to the yearnings of Nigerians, also pleaded for more palliatives for the people.

He said that the area council, with support of the FCT Administration and investors are working out more ways to provide mass transportation to ease the high cost of transportation in the council.

He added that his administration was also working on social development intervention to support the non-formal vulnerable groups as well as its health sector. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
