David Umahi, governor of Ebonyi state, has ordered the arrest of a caterer for allegedly serving low quality tasteless food to widows and the elderly at a Christmas party in the state.
The cook was arrested on Thursday at the party organised by the government in Ebonyi, NAN reports.
Umahi stated that it was distasteful and inappropriate to serve people what the cook could not eat.
He said the cook will be properly investigated and asked to refund the money spent on preparing the food for the widows and elderly.
He disclosed that another party will be held.
“We are, therefore, going to repeat this party as we should celebrate our fathers and mothers well,” he said.
“The bible enjoins us to honour our fathers and mothers so that our days would be long on earth. I want my days to be long because I have suffered from youth.”
The governor said he would inspect food for the widows and elderly during the next celebration.
He also said the wrappers shared with the widows and elderly were of inferior quality.
“The celebration must be held on Dec.20 or 21 as anyone who takes what belongs to this category of people is taking trouble. We gave the civil servants high-quality wrappers and they were happy.
“The people who supplied those of the civil servants should be ready to supply 10,000 highest quality wrappers, to the widows and elders.
“When I declared that the mode of agitation some people propagated in the zone would be uncontrollable if not checked, people didn’t take it serious.
