In a bid to cushion the current economic hardship in the district, the senator representing Oyo South Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Sharafadeen Alli has extended the distribution of food palliatives to traders in the Ido and Ibarapa areas of Oyo State.

The items were received from the senator’s team led by Mr Gbenga Elegbede by the market leaders from the four local governments hosting 11 towns and more than 15 markets.

The markets visited included Apete, Awotan, Akufo, Ido, Omi-Adio, Okolo, Lanlate, Maya, Eruwa, Temidire, Oja-Oba Igboora, Towobowo Igboora, Towobowo Market, Idere, Ayete, Tapa and Igangan.

The senator had earlier distributed items to traders in markets across five local governments: Ibadan South-West, Ibadan North, Ibadan North-West, Ibadan South-East and Ibadan North-East.

Senator Alli said the effort was part of his ongoing commitment to alleviating the suffering of his constituents amid challenging economic conditions.

He said the initiative aims to provide much-needed relief to traders who have been significantly impacted by the rising cost of living.

According to him, the distribution of the food palliatives was carried out in various markets across the Ido and Ibarapa areas of the district.

The lawmaker said that the distribution of the food palliatives was just one of the many steps his administration is taking to support the economic stability of his district.

He reiterated his commitment to the welfare of his constituents and promised to continue implementing programmes that would mitigate the effects of the current economic challenges.

“We understand the difficulties our people are facing, and we are committed to providing support where it is most needed,” he said.

The traders, who were beneficiaries of the food palliatives, expressed gratitude to Senator Alli for his timely intervention.

They said that the palliatives would go a long way in sustaining their families during these challenging times.

The traders praised the Senator for his proactive approach to addressing the pressing needs of his constituents and called on other leaders to emulate his example.
