Comrade Nwosu made the donation on behalf of Anambra State Government.

Following preliminary investigations into the source of the adulterated kerosene, Hon. Comrade Nwosu ordered that the patrol where the product was purchased be sealed forthwith.

He expressed sadness that despite the efforts of the state government and several warnings against sales of adulterated products, some dealers have continued to sabotage the efforts of the Government.

He however, vowed to leave no stone unturned in his efforts to fish out perpetrators of the dastardly acts.

He further appealed to Ndị Anambra to bewary of the kerosene they buy as there are shortages of kerosene in the country.
