Lagos Assembly Charges Sanwo-Olu to Ensure Proper Sensitization of Residents
The Lagos State House of Assembly has charged Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to ensure that residents of the state are properly sensitized on the need to adhere to COVID-19 protocols and other health guidelines.
The call was made by the Speaker of the House, Mudashiru Obasa, during a plenary session on Tuesday, where the Assembly deliberated on the state's response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Obasa noted that while the state government has taken several measures to contain the spread of the virus, there is still a need for more effective sensitization of residents on the importance of wearing face masks, maintaining social distancing, and washing their hands regularly.
"We urge the Governor to ensure that residents are properly sensitized on the need to adhere to these protocols," Obasa said. "We must work together to ensure that our people are protected from the virus."
The Speaker also commended the state government for its efforts in containing the spread of the virus, including the establishment of isolation centers and the provision of personal protective equipment (PPE) to healthcare workers.
However, he noted that more needed to be done to ensure that residents are fully aware of the risks associated with the virus and the measures they can take to protect themselves.
"We must not relent in our efforts to contain the spread of the virus," Obasa said. "We must continue to work together to ensure that our people are protected and that our state remains safe."
The Assembly also urged the state government to provide more support to healthcare workers who are on the frontlines of the fight against the virus.
"We must appreciate the sacrifices being made by our healthcare workers," Obasa said. "We must provide them with the necessary support and resources to enable them to continue to do their work effectively."
The Assembly's call comes as the state government continues to take measures to contain the spread of the virus, including the enforcement of lockdowns and curfews in certain areas of the state.
It is hoped that the Assembly's call will lead to more effective sensitization of residents and a reduction in the spread of the virus in the state.
