In a statement signed by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry, Barrister Georgina Ehuriah, the Minister urged Christians in the country to emulate the outstanding characteristics of Jesus Christ amongst which are tolerance, love, peace and compassion.

Aregbesola called on them to use the occasion of this year’s Easter Celebration to pray for Nigeria and the entire world at this time of global emergency of COVID-19 Pandemic.

The statement reads:”The Minister appealed to all Nigerians to continue to support the efforts of Government towards fighting the Coronavirus Disease.

“He reminded them of the need to adhere strictly to the measures put in place by relevant authorities towards preventing the spread of the virus in the country particularly, through the observance of social distancing, in addition to regular personal hygiene and sanitary practices.

Lol..we are already on a holiday

Little advise for you

Start farming if you've any piece of land

This government won't give you anything for free

You won't be able to move freely without facemask
And very soon, once the VACCINE is out
You won't have access to basic amenities unless you're vaccinated

Nigerians are already on holidays...just tell them,you have relaxed the lockdown on those number of days.

The announcement is needed for continuous balancing. Whether the pandemic stops or not, the muslims will recieve their own announcement too...

please look for a primary 2 pupil to differentiate for you between lockdown and holiday,

We're already on CORONA HOLIDAYS, so it wouldn't really make much a difference.

Holiday has already met lockdown. Anyway, it is noted.
