The national government has donated relief food to 400 localss in Lugari.
The food was distributed by deputy county commissioner Agnes Karoki.
Karoki said the initiative was to ensure no Kenyan dies of hunger, however, despite Lugari being a former Western province food basket, hunger cases have prevailed in the area in recent times.
The opposition, NASA, accused Jubilee of bribing voters with relief food during election campaigns but Karoki said the programme targets vulnerable elders from poverty-stricken families in the subcounty.
