We’ll Strengthen Efforts To Protect Our People Against COVID-19 – Uzodimma
The Imo State government has promised to strengthen efforts towards protecting its people from the COVID-19.
He expressed his displeasure over the fact that despite the ban on interstate travels and the directives issued on movement to curb the spread of the virus, there was still a lot of non-compliance. “There is now need for us to strengthen efforts towards protecting our people at the villages. Despite the announcements and directives to close all borders, it is surprising that somebody came in from Lagos and has infected four members of his family,” he said.This now brings the total number of cases in the state to seven.
