"Emergency food arrives up North...9.900 bags of cereals received", is the front page banner headline in the Times.

In a related story, the Times reports that the inhabitants of "witches" homes or camps, victims of last year's Cerebro-Spinal Meningitis (CSM), the aged, children and inhabitants of the former conflict areas, are to benefit from free food supply by the government in the current exercise to offset the famine in the Northern Region.

"50 per cent Owabi dam area destroyed", is the disturbing back page headline of the Times.
