        Why does the BBC always suck at headlines? They were not only just "not delivered". How about: ".....WERE STOLEN BY OFICIALS"

        This is as a result of d hardship in this country, people who were to deliver these things might not even av foodstuffs in their own homes

        It is sad you can't look beyond your myopic political inclination. This is not about APC. This is Corruption which is not political biased
