“We want to inform everyone that some individuals and organizations are fraudulently issuing fake awards and asking for payments to personal bank accounts, all while falsely claiming to represent the Office of the Senior Special Assistant to the President on School Feeding,” Dr. Adeniji stated.

She firmly declared, “We want to make it absolutely clear that the Office of the SSAP on School Feeding does not charge any fees for awards, recognitions, or any form of engagement.”

Dr. Adeniji further emphasized, “We never request individuals or organizations to make payments into personal accounts for any reason related to our programs or activities.”

She advised that “any request for payment or offers of awards made in our name should be treated with extreme caution” and urged anyone encountering suspicious activities or requests to report them to law enforcement agencies.

“We appreciate your cooperation and vigilance in helping us address this issue,” Dr. Adeniji concluded.
