Amid media reports of senior UN officials threatening to pull the World Food Programme out of Nepal, the UN food agency has said it will stay by the side of Nepalis, “working hand in hand with the government” to support the ongoing recovery efforts. WFP has been in Nepal for over 50 years, bringing essential food to the most vulnerable, and it will continue to assist the country in the future, WFP Country Director Pippa Bradford said in a statement on Friday. The WFP has been under scanner for repeated complaints of poor quality of its supplies and its reluctance to provide details about how it stores the goods and how they are transported to the beneficiaries.
