“Right now, commercial flight to China is not open, but when flights are open again, we’re considering the team going back to China.”
Mr Michael Yigao, Managing Director, China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation Nigeria Ltd, says the 15 Chinese medical experts that arrived in the country on April 8 are in the company’s care.
Ehanire, while responding to questions at the daily Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 briefing May 14, said “the medical personnel are not guests of the Federal Government but that of the construction company”. The Nigerian Medical Association even described the move as an embarrassment to the association and other health workers who were giving their best in the fight against COVID-19 pandemic under “deplorable working conditions”.
“ They are here with us and have continued to teach our staff how to protect themselves because protection and prevention are more important than the treatment. “And like other companies in Nigeria, we will do whatever we can to help the country, like building treatment centres and training people on how to handle the virus”.
“We understand the COVID-19 pandemic challenge in Nigeria because we are based here and have a lot of employees and we do believe, that with efforts from the government from the people, we will win this war.
