Open Letter To Buhari: Required Actions To Cushion Effect Of Global Pandemic by jaelz(m): 12:43pm On Apr 27, 2020 |
Due to the Covid19 pandemic and it's ravaging spread like wildfire across the country, the various governments at state and federal level have taken proactive measures to actually put an end to the devastating effect should in-case the figures soars in a geometric progression while recovery and health cure stands at an arithmetic growth rate. Nigerians over the following past months have resulted to disobeying the lock-down rules and orders, protests against the lock-down and massive looting and robberies across the country, should Nigeria provide incentives and palliatives to aid the suffering of the people, YES, can the afford it, NO, WHY, because as a country with a single sole source of revenue coming majorly from Oil Exploration and Exportation can't currently afford such due to the decline in the prices of oil at the global oil prices falling into the negative, a fall that saw even the unique Brent crude crashing the resulting effect means slashes in income for oil producing dependent revenue generation companies like Nigeria. In my open letter to the president, I suggest he does the following to see the following positive effects on the general economy: Distribution of facial masks and hand gloves to be produced and locally sourced thereby increasing earnings and creating a source of livelihood for the teaming populace Upliftment of the total ban of movement from 24 hours in day and limit it to just 4 hours a day Enact rules that enforce the mandatory use of the facial masks and hand gloves in public outings Create a general rapid mobile court and sentencing unit for those found guilty of violating the Covid10 rules. Create a special task force team that ensures the social distancing rules are strictly adhered to in public places, thereby creating more job opportunities for the teaming unemployed among the general populace Distribution of free hand-sanitizers to be locally sourced and produced by the local populace Make available washing and disinfection apparatus at public places in strategic locations like airports, ports and government houses. Set up a special committee to look into the total overhaul and rehabilitation of the healthcare system and it's practices to meetup with international standards and guidelines by at-most 2022 Set up another special committee to look into the post economy recovery and diversification to house and accommodate extra sources of revenue generations for the country, agriculture, technology and logistics should be the core areas of research look into to further cushion the adverse effects of the lock-down. Direct anti-corruption bodies and organizations to probe cases of fraud as regards the disbursement of funds meant to aid and relief the suffering of Nigerians during the global pandemic crisis and lock-down and stay home period. cc: lalasticlala, seun, onila, ijababe, mynd44, farano 1 Share
