The Nigerian
Government has lamented the high rate of COVID-19 positive cases among
politicians in the country.
The government described the situation as a threat to
governance and security.
This position was conveyed by the Chairman of the
Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, Boss Mustapha, during the media briefing
on Monday in Abuja.
He called for vigilance among all Nigerians, insisting that
COVID-19 does not discriminate or respect positions.
“Of recent, we have witnessed a high rate of positive cases
especially among people in authority. This has a direct impact on governance
and security of our nation.
“We urge that vigilance and care should be exhibited by all
Nigerians irrespective of status.”
Mustapha, who is the Secretary to the Government of the
Federation, SGF, said that the lockdown was relaxed not because the virus has
slowed down but to balance lives and livelihood.
