Governor Simon Lalong has promised aggressive enforcement of regulations aimed at stemming the tide of COVID-19 in the state as cases rise to 17.
He said, “My message to the people of Plateau State is to commend them for complying with the regulations we put in place. If we had not taken the steps we adopted, the situation would have been more worrisome. He urged citizens of the state to continue complying with the guidelines for restriction of movement, use of facemasks, adhere to social distancing while observing hygiene and sanitation requirements.
Lalong also described as “unfortunate” the situation where some people violate laid down regulations aimed at tackling the virus and try to persuade others to disregard Government directives on the claim that COVID-19 is not real.
