The attention of the Acting Chairman of Owo Local Government, Hon. Ibrahim Hammed, has been drawn to rumours circulating within the public space linking his office to the distribution of rice and other welfare packages reportedly sponsored by the Senator representing Ondo North Senatorial District, Sen. Jide Ipinsagba.
The residents of Owo Local Government Area and the general public are hereby informed that this claim is entirely unfounded and should be disregarded. The welfare package in question was neither allocated to nor distributed through the Office of the Acting Chairman or any department of the Owo Local Government. Consequently, Hon. Ibrahim Hammed was not involved in the distribution process in any capacity.
While the Acting Chairman acknowledges and appreciates the kind gesture of Sen. Jide Ipinsagba towards the welfare of the people, it is important to note that, as a federal lawmaker and representative of the people, the Senator retains the prerogative to engage and reach the populace through channels available to him.
Members of the public, particularly those spreading or amplifying this misinformation, are strongly urged to desist from misleading the public and to verify information through appropriate and official channels before dissemination.

Tolulope Adeyefa
Media Assistant to Acting Chairman of Owo Local Government
