COVID-19: Gov El-Rufai Threatens Fresh Lockdown in Kaduna.....


Kaduna State Governor, Malam Nasir El-Rufai, says to avert another lockdown following an upsurge in COVID-19 in the state, residents must comply with the necessary protocols.....


El-Rufai noted that lockdown was not the immediate focus of the state, adding that the spike in infection was a result of lack of adherence to COVID-19 preventive measures.

He threatened that the government would impose a lockdown if it becomes necessary to save lives and prevent the collapse of the healthcare system.

The governor spoke during a media chat in Hausa with select journalists on Wednesday.

“We are calling on all our citizens to join us to fight COVID-19 and save lives without having a lockdown. We think there are lots of simpler things citizens and businesses can do that can help reduce the spread of the disease,” he said.

According to the governor, the government expects voluntary compliance with COVID-19 prevention protocols.

“We are counting on the cooperation of our citizens, religious leaders, the business community, transporters, and other stakeholders to stop COVID-19,” he added.

El-Rufai also directed that as from Thursday, December 17, 2020, all residents of Kaduna State must wear face masks, adding that security agents would enforce compliance.
