Gboyega Akosile,
Chief Press Secretary to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has attacked critic and
former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode for insisting that the identity
of the Italian who brought Coronavirus to Nigeria should be revealed.
Fani-Kayode had said
on his twitter handle that the Italian
who brought coronavirus into Nigeria has not been named and that his picture
has not been released to the public.
”The driver that was
alleged to have driven him to Abeokuta said he did not do so.The passengers on
the plane in which he flew into Nigeria cannot be traced.
“The claim that he
was an employee of a company & that he went to their office in Lagos after
leaving the airport has proved to be false.
”Finally the Lagos
state Commissioner for Health went to see the Italian without wearing any
protective gear. Something doesn’t add up in this saga,” he said.
But Akosile said
Fani-Kayode’s comment was uncalled for.
”It is unfortunate
that people like Fani-Kayode who should be at forefront of helping Nigerians would turn around
as public enemy number 1 with this kind of dangerous narrative.
“Please, what do you
need the index patient’s photo and name for? Would that info help the spread of
the virus?”
Of course, FFK has been rightly answered. Sometimes, the guy behaves like a child that throws tantrums whenever he wants to comment on public issues.
