The Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje is asking for
the lockdown imposed on his state over the spread of COVID-19 and the deaths
associated with it to be lifted by the President, Muhammadu Buhari.
He said it is important to relax the lockdown for a while in
order to ease the hardship in the state, especially in the holy month of
Ramadan.
Speaking on Thursday at the government house where he
inaugurated a panel of experts to support the state task force technical
committee, Ganduje said government is expanding treatment centres for COVID-19.
“We would engage the presidential task force on COVID-19 to
seek permission to relax the total lockdown imposed on Kano,” he said.
“We are making this appeal on behalf of our people who are
presently running out of food items. We would love the federal government to
relax the lockdown for a period of time to enable people stock their homes,
especially now that majority of us are fasting. It will also ease the economic
hardship in the state.”
