Ireland's Prime Minister Leo Varadkar will go back to work as a doctor to help out during the coronavirus outbreak.

The Taoiseach will join the Irish health service once a week while continuing to lead the government.

Varadkar is a trained doctor and worked as a general practitioner before being elected to a seat in the Irish assembly.

"Many of [Varadkar's] family and friends are working in the health service. He wanted to help out even in a small way," a government spokesperson said.

Many members of the Irish prime minister's family work in medicine including his partner Matthew Barrett who is a surgeon at a hospital in Dublin.

Varadkar's father and mother, a doctor from India and a nurse from Ireland, met in London while working for the National Health Service (NHS).

He is said to be the first EU leader to join the front line of the COVID-19 pandemic. He reportedly spent Sunday giving medical advice to concerned citizens over the phone.

There are nearly 5,000 cases of COVID-19 in Ireland and 158 have died due to the disease.

And our President will not go back to the battlefield as a general to fulfill his campaign promise of leading in the forefront in the war against insecurity.

Great


Waiting for buhari to follow suit

Buhari will carry gun and join a battalion soon to fight Boko Haram.

Lool, That is what is called leading from the front... Not the one in Abuja hidden in Aso rock after promising that he'll lead from the front........

Good one from him. Doctor Governors, Ministers and Legislators could do same too here. That doesn't mean they're resigning rather additional responsibility.
