A group of protesters mainly women took to the streets of Sapele Delta State this early morning of 15th April, 2020 for a peaceful protests to demonstrate their displeasure for another 14th days lockdown by the state governor Sen. Okowa decreed few days ago.

They say they are matching to the Secretariat of the state local to chairman (whom they also accused of playing politics with the issues) to register their displeasure.

The woman said for the past 14 days it has not be easy for them and their household, The government lockdown the state because of covid19 in which they obey in good faith and stay at home but after the 14 days, the hunger was more than that of the Egyptians in the day Joseph in the Bible because the government didn't give them any support and many of them with their children depends on daily earnings but the government that made the rules are enjoying with their family so it will be another 14days of disaster if they were to stay at home because see their children cry of hunger every day is more than enough no protest against the Lockdown.
Also, they said the government is deceiving them with their audio promises and support because for the pass 14 days the government has not done anything for them survive.

Conclusively, they said they didn't see any different between dying by hunger or by covid19, all die na die they said. So they are saying no to another 14 days of lockdown without anything to eat at home.

am beginning to feel that this covid 19 pandemic is over-hyped in Nigeria, other viruses out-breaks like ebola, sars, e.t.c was managed without all these over hyped campaign of fear.
total lockdown of people with out adequate sustainable palliatives, is like impossing a stronger problem, while trying to solving another problem.
even the corrupt system is not helping the effort of any palliative measure, as the beneficiaries are not feeling the impact due to the alleged diversion of the product for personal use of the few privileged ones.
