A prominent APC figure in Ondo State praises Interior Minister Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo for providing direct cash relief to people displaced by recent flooding in the state’s South Senatorial District. The assistance supports more than 1,000 affected households after floods displace residents across six local government areas.

The minister’s Flood Relief Palliative initiative distributes the cash, with former House of Representatives member Kolade Akinjo coordinating the disbursement. An APC chieftain, Omoyele Olabode, describes the intervention as swift and focused on meeting immediate needs, urging other leaders and citizens to emulate it. He also calls for sustained government action on long-term flood control and drainage projects.

Both sources frame the relief as a response to the displacement and economic strain caused by the floods, but differ in emphasis: Nigerian Eye adds explicit linkage to President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, while Punch focuses more directly on the act of cash relief and its immediate effect on victims.
