Education Minister Daryll Matthew is pushing back against a misleading image circulating on social media that purports to show a meal served to a student under the government's school meals programme. According to Antigua Observer, the image depicted a small portion of spaghetti and salad with dressing.
Minister Matthew has dismissed the image as deliberate mischief, disputing that it accurately represents what is being served to students under the programme. The minister made clear that the circulating image does not reflect the standard or quality of meals provided through the government initiative.
The viral image has drawn public attention and scrutiny to the school meals programme, prompting the minister to address the matter directly and set the record straight on what students are actually receiving.
