Lagos State has unveiled a subsidised food initiative aimed at enhancing access to essential staples for its residents, as announced in a statement released by Gbenga Omotosho, the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, on Saturday.
Commencing on Sunday, March 17, 2024, the initiative seeks to introduce a voucher system during its pilot phase to ensure transparency and prevent any potential exploitation.
Initially, the programme will be operational at designated markets situated across five administrative divisions of the state.
These include 27 locations in Ikeja, six in Lagos Island, nine in Ikorodu, five in Epe, and 10 in Badagry.
