The campaign tagged: ‘Coronavirus (COVID-19) Public Advisory’ with the hashtag; ‘LagosAgainstCoronaVirus’ advised the general public to ‘monitor yourself closely and diligently during the self -quarantine, to identify if you develop symptoms including but not limited to the following, cough, fever, shortness of breath, feeling of being ill, headache and diarrhea.”

Chico Ejiro said: “This sensitisation is very necessary because such pandemic needs constant reassurance that all is not as bad as it seems.

He wants the best for his people and at times like this, he is expected to do what he is doing as he has always done.

“So, we are telling the people not to forget to wash their hands, use hand sanitisers, they should try as much as they can to avoid touching their eyes, nose and mouth, avoid contact with sick persons, cover a cough or sneeze, keep their distances and stay alive.”

“We are reminding them of what to do to stay alive. It is a big burden on Hon. Desmond Elliot.
