The Edo State Government has come out to say that it will not stop punishing those who violate the laid down regulations to prevent the spread of coronavirus.

Special Adviser to the Governor on Media and Communication Strategy, Mr. Crusoe Osagie revealed this in a recent statement.

According to him, the government does not plan to stop prioritizing the
health and safety of Edo people amid the pandemic.

He added that the state governor, Godwin Obaseki is charged with the duty of protecting the lives and property of Edo and he’ll keep performing above expectations.

His words, “Governor Godwin Obaseki is charged with the duty of protecting the lives and property of Edo people. He would not abdicate this role because of political expediency. This is why he signed the gazette to ensure proper management of political gatherings, a move that was informed by the insights from an epidemiological study conducted by researchers at the University of Benin Teaching Hospital (UBTH).”

“With the rising cases of COVID-19 in the state, which indicates community transmission of the virus, it would be foolhardy for the governor to allow for gatherings that would compromise the health and safety of Edo people, in the light of projections from the epidemiological study, which predicts that COVID-19 cases in the state would peak by the third week of June 2020.”

“We are warning persons intent on rubbishing the gains made in curtailing the spread of COVID-19 and compromising our healthcare system to be assured that the full weight of the law would run its cause. There is no denying that the state government is systematically managing the incidence of COVID-19.”

β€œIt would be inimical of progress to disrupt the peace in the state, cause a spike of COVID-19 cases because of the political ambitions of a few persons, thereby putting the people in harm’s way.”
