Some caterers under the School Feeding Programme say they are not making any returns.

According to one of them, Maame Araba Eshun, the 97 pesewas per-pupil allocation is not enough money to aid their business.

She insists that the increase in prices of foodstuffs have even worsened their plight.

The caterer made this comment on Prime Morning show on Joy Prime.

“What will I say? For now, we are just running errands. There is nothing like profit. We just have to work that is why we are agitating for the 3 cedis. Even the 3 cedis is nothing to write home about but we still have to work. This is why we are asking for increment”, Ms Eshun said.

She also encouraged the coordinators of the programme together with the public to fight on their behalf on their calls to see an increment of their allocation.

The caterer also pleaded with government to pay her colleagues on time by releasing arrears for two school terms.
