In Adamawa, a delegation from the ECOWAS Commission, led by Mr. Godfrey Ameachi Alozie, Program Officer for Humanitarian Affairs, carried out food distribution and cash transfers to each household beneficiary.

It identified 1,000 households in Adamawa, providing each household with N91,500, in addition to foodstuffs.

“Additionally, each household was provided with a debit card loaded with N91,500, with a monthly withdrawal limit of N30,500.
