“I want to use this opportunity to appeal to all residents to pray for our health staff and to support them to succeed.”
The governor in a radio and television broadcast in Asaba, warned that coronavirus pandemic was real, adding that the stay at home order was not punitive but to check the spread of the virus.
He said that government had prepared and equipped four isolation and treatment centers for COVID -19 patients in Warri, Oghara and Asaba with several holding places across the state for suspected cases. “The lockdown order was given because it was necessary and also lawful because I have already signed into law a regulation which empowers us to take action against those who disobey the law.
“I want to use this opportunity to appeal to all residents to pray for our health staff and to support them to succeed,” Okowa said. “Those who fall sick and exhibit the symptoms of the disease which include fever, dry cough, and difficulty in breathing should call the following numbers; 08031230480; 08031230481; 08031230538 and 08031230529 for direction.
