An Afro Pop Singer, Ayokanmi Oluwasegun Eyanro popularly called “Frequencie” on Friday said he has disbursed N500,00 in cash and N200,000 worth of food items within the rural areas of Kwara State.
As Kwara State recorded its first two cases of coronavirus (COVID-19), the singer called for calm and that the identification of people infected with the virus should be seen as a good omen.
Frequencie in a chat with newsmen said he distributed the relief items to the less privileged people.
According to him, the negligence and delay from some advanced nations to commence test at early stage on those that might be infected with the virus has worsen the state of things.
Frequencie, however, frowned at the “poor handling of the suspected coronavirus case at the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, UITH”.
He noted that, “No preferential treatment should be given to patients at this critical moment, because the disease shows no regard to anyone. I wonder why anyone will even want to hide his status or get special treatment in this situation we find ourselves.
“In the real sense of it, the elites in the society should lead by example in disclosing their status, and sharing their success story, to encourage the common man to show readiness to fight this scourge.”
He implored Kwarans to adhere strictly to the precautionary measures for prevention and control of the deadly Coronavirus.
”Wash your hands regularly, apply alcohol based sanitizer and improve personal hygiene. Dear fans, obey all government directives at this critical moment to prevent and control COVID 19 spread,” he concluded.
