The Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, on Monday extended the stay at home directive issued to civil servants in the state for an additional two weeks.
Mr Ganduje gave the directive while receiving a progress report from the 40-member Kano COVID-19 fund raising committee under the leadership of the Vice Chancellor of Bayero University Kano, Muhammad Bello, and co-chair, Tajuddeen Dantata.
He also appealed to Kano residents to strictly adhere to directives from the federal ministry of health and the state government, especially observing social distance, washing hands regularly and staying at home order to avoid being infected. The governor commended the committee’s work and assured that very soon it would start distributing relief items to 300,000 households “and other special clusters like orphanage homes, as disclosed by the committee.”
