The Kaduna State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has continued to pray for the quick recovery of His Excellency, Governor Nasir el-Rufai, who is officially the only single known infected victim of coronavirus disease in our dear Kaduna State.
The party expressed this in a statement signed by its Publicity Secretary, Abraham Alberah Catoh, made available on Sunday March 29, 2020.
“Realizing that hunger is another dangerous disease, the Party makes a passionate but strong appeal to the Government to effect an Intermittent but Controlled Relaxation of the Curfew currently in force to allow people to either stock or re-stock household needs like food stuffs, sanitaries,drugs etc.
“We believe this will add value to the commitment of the public to respect and obey Government directives. It will also allow public spirited individuals the opportunity to come to the aid of the needy members of our society,” it said.
The party said that since the Chairman of the Covid-19 Committee of the State is fortunately the Deputy Governor, they urge her and her team to redouble their efforts in the areas of continuous Education n Public Enlightment especially on how to go about being tested as quickly as possible any time the need arises.
“This should be in addition to the phone lines dedicated by Government.
“The public out cry that the lines are not responding to callers should be looked into without further delay. This is time for Public Confidence building n relevant Government officials need to respond to complains and advises swiftly. We are in an important project of Government/Public Partnership Programme which succeed for our over all interest and safety,” PDP said.
The party called on all members of the public to support the Government, especially now and respect its directives.
“May God Almighty take the lead as we journey out of the woods. Amen,” it concluded.
