Stating how the coronavirus case started from one person, moved to millions of people and killing thousands in a matter of weeks, the comedian urged the president to take drastic steps to ensure that it does not get out of hand in Nigeria.
“What human or medical equipment do we have in Nigeria that can be compared with America, Spain, Italy or even the whole of Europe, which has been ravaged by the coronavirus? Are we prepared at this time? Whereby looking from outside we still have not made essential preparations by learning from what these nations are currently facing,” he said.
I go dye also encourage the president to send relief materials to Nigerians. He stated that the lockdown affected many people’s sources of income. According to him, many Nigerians earn their livelihood from the street and telling them to stay at home would negatively affect them.
