COVID-19: Oyo State rejects 1800 bags of rice donated by FG, says it is infected and unhealthy



The Oyo State government has disclosed that the about 1800 bags of rice donated by the Federal Government of Nigeria through the Nigerian Custom Service as part of COVID-19 palliatives were all infected and unhealthy for consumption.
The rejection was as a result of the thorough inspection of the grains by the committee on distribution of relief materials at the warehouse where they were kept.
The executive adviser to thr Governor on Agribusiness, Dr Debo Akande who spoke on behalf of the state governor said that the donations were rejected after repeatedly thorough inspection to the warehouse where the rice were stocked.
He however said that the donations were rejected with the hope that the Nigerian Custom Service will replace them with quality ones void of infection.
Also he added that the rejection will not stop the distribution of palliatives across the state which will begin very soon.

A Covid-19 tracing software tool has appeared in the settings of both Android phones and iPhones as part of an update of their operating systems. The "exposure notification" tool is switched off by default, and is not a tracing app itself. It enables an app to run in the background while still using Bluetooth. This lets the app measure the distance between two handsets - and then alert the phone owner if someone near them later tests positive for Covid-19. In the UK there is currently no available contact-tracing app. The update has caused some confusion, with people querying the new addition to their handsets on social media. "This is not a new app but is an extra element added to the phones' operating systems to enable approved developers to build apps that can potentially warn of proximity to infected individuals," said computer scientist Prof Alan Woodward, of Surrey University. "Only apps approved by Google and Apple will be included in the...
