Adefisan said Cititrust donated the foodstuff comprising 1000 bags of rice, 100 cartons of noodles and 20 cartons of vegetable oil to support the state government’s efforts in providing palliatives for the vulnerable to cushion the effect of the lockdown.

He further emphasised that it has been shown the world over that citizens’ attitude is very crucial to stopping the spread of the virus, and therefore urged Nigerians to adhere strictly to all the directives of government, particularly with regards to movement restriction, social distancing and hand hygiene.

“We urge our fellow citizens to adhere strictly to the precautionary measures prescribed by the World Health Organization, the Federal Government, the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control and the Lagos State Government to successfully contain outbreak of coronavirus pandemic in the country and completely eradicate it,” Adefisan added.
