Supplier not management to blame for food shortage at Port Kaituma dorm

The reported food shortage at the Port Kaituma Secondary School dormitory was caused by failure on the part of the supplier to deliver on time.

This is according to the Ministry of Education (MoE) which, in a statement issued yesterday, said the issue has been rectified.

The statement comes a week after this newspaper reported the concerns of residents over the food shortage, which left contracted cooks at the dormitory unsure of what they would prepare for the more than 50 students housed there.
