Lagos state government has once again shown what true leadership is in the face of the pandemic crisis across the world.
Lagos state which is the leading state in the number of the confirmed cases of COVID-19 has not relented since the break of the epidemic.
Today, the governor of lagos state who has been speaking to Lagosians regularly and reassuring them of their plans to help eradicate the coronavirus attack in the state has come open to announce that the government has already mapped out a plan to distribute food items to the people of lagos state. He said the food is meant to serve them for at least two weeks.
He is targeting 200,000 households with estimation of 6 people per household.
This is happening after the state had taken up a project to fumigate some strategic parts and locations in lagos state.
However, while the British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson tests positive for COVID-19 and other world leaders who have unfortunately tested positive to the virus have come open to declare and resort to self isolation, Nigerians are busy asking for their president’s way about.
The President who reportedly tested negative to the COVID-19 hasn’t spoken to the public nor addressd the citizens in the worst time.
According to some Nigerians, this is the best time for the president to be speaking regularly with the citizens same way he did during the campaign time.
Quite unfortunate…….
Governor Sanwo-Olu of lagos state should be an example of how a true leader should be……. Maybe, Nigerian government should pluck a leaf..
No wonder they say, “Lagos state is a country of its own which is always ahead of Nigeria in all ramifications.
The Presidential media team have taken much energy to defend the presidential absence on Twitter as they tackle, Block and issue threats to people online who demand the President should at least address the nation.
Meanwhile, some Nigerians are pleading with the Law makers who have recently received a 2020 Toyota camry cars to atleast reach out to their respective constituencies to donate “Hand sanitizers” to the constituents. That would be remembered for a long time.
Many people can’t afford a hand sanitizer as fake and substandard home made hand sanitizers flood the street.
Painfully again, many philanthropists such as Aliko Dangote, Otedola, Ma from China, UBA, Gtbank and others have donated Huge amounts of money and relief materials towards this course……. How far has the government engaged the public as how these materials and money are being handled. How has it reached to the common man who is seriously facing another hunger epidemic in their respective houses due to the closure of markets……
Kudos to lagos state government.
Kudos to His Excellency, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
God held us all…
