Osun Free School Meal Scare: 18 pupils hospitalized, govt launches investigation, halts cooking

The Osun State Government has started looking into the matter of approximately 18 students from James Primary School B in Osogbo who are said to have ended up in hospitals after consuming a midday meal provided to them as part of the state government’s free school feeding program.

In addition, the government ordered that all food preparation at the impacted school be stopped while the investigations were ongoing.

Following a report of the issue to Governor Ademola Adeleke, Kolapo Alimi, the state Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, issued a statement on Tuesday that was obtained in Osogbo.

The patients have reportedly received treatment and been released from hospitals.

The statement stated, “Osun State Government has ordered full investigations into the reported cases of food poisoning at St James primary School B, Owoope Osogbo

“The State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, directed immediate action when the matter was reported to him by the Special Adviser on O-Meal, Mrs Grace Ayodele. The Governor has subsequently directed the stoppage of further food cooking at the affected school pending the outcome of the investigations.

“The affected cooks in the said schools alongside the planning officer for the O-Meal programme have also been summoned to a meeting by Tuesday morning. Additionally, the governor has directed enforcement of food standards and control as well as the auditing of the O-Meal structure to forestall future occurrences.

“Meanwhile, the government is settling the medical bills of the affected students as narrated by the Chairman of the Local Government Education Authority, Mr Nathaniel Ojetola. The LGEA Chairman who was at the forefront of the intervention efforts disclosed that a total number of 18 students were treated and discharged.

“The total student population of the school is 200 while 103 are within the population receiving food from the O-Meal Programme. A government delegation is also visiting families of the affected students.”

The incident on Monday sparked fear, particularly among the parents of the students involved, who posted footage of them on social media showing them in hospital beds.

Three of the victims were shown getting drip in one of the films.

One of the patients described how they started running stool after being offered rice and eggs, which is how they got sick.

Mothers of the victims are shown in the video as well, stating that on Monday after school, they noticed an unpleasant odor coming from the egg their kids had been served.

Concerning the food the seller offered them, they stated that shortly after returning from school, their children began to urinate.

In order to stop it from happening again, they insisted on an inquiry into the development.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
