We don’t want to lock Lagos for the second time – Sanwo-Olu
Governor Babajide Sanwo Olu of Lagos State has expressed his concern over the spike in cases of Covid-19 recorded in the state.
He urged residents in the state to observe all safety measures put in place to curb the spread of the virus, noting that the state government is doing everything possible to avoid another lockdown.
Sanwo Olu in his word said “There is an urgent need for us to be careful with the way we live. Interact and socialize with our friends and family. Many people are ignoring the warnings and guidelines, thereby exposing themselves and others to the virus.
“We are well into the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. Yesterday, Lagos scarily recorded its highest number of infection in one day (712). We have already recorded a frightening spike in infection cases. This spike brings positive cases to a total of 32,720 in Lagos alone.
“This second wave comes with severe symptoms, and the higher number of positive cases we detect, the higher number of casualties we’re bound to record. We do not want this, but for this to be avoided, we must be intentional and cautious.”
We do not want to go into another lovkdown which would inconvenience everyone of us. Hence, it is important that we adhere to all safety measures so as to safeguard ourselves from this deadly virus.
