Following the rise in COVID-19 cases and the strange deaths in the state, President Muhammadu Buhari had ordered a total lockdown in Kano which took effect on Monday.

But the governor said it is important to relax the lockdown for a while in order to ease the hardship in the state, especially in the holy month of Ramadan.

Speaking on Thursday at the government house where he inaugurated a panel of experts to support the state task force technical committee, Ganduje said government is expanding treatment centres for COVID-19.

“We would engage the presidential task force on COVID-19 to seek permission to relax the total lockdown imposed on Kano,” he said.

“We are making this appeal on behalf of our people who are presently running out of food items. We would love the federal government to relax the lockdown for a period of time to enable people stock their homes, especially now that majority of us are fasting. It will also ease the economic hardship in the state.”

The panel led by Musa Borodo, president of the National Postgraduate Medical College of Nigeria, was given the responsibility of developing strategy and supporting the state task force on COVID-19 to adopt measures for checking the spread of the virus.

Tijani Hussain, the state coordinator of the task force, put the COVID-19 death toll in Kano at five, saying none of the deceased died at the isolation centre.

For real?
PMB should just vex and top-up the lockdown with a week before putting it on auto-renewal.

Nonsense and ingredients.

Relax lockdown when you’re still using verbal autopsy to determine deaths? That will be their biggest mistake yet if they do

;

Wont say more than that

Gandollar himself

You say relax wetin??

It seems no one told you but :

It's either Gandollar doesn't understand how serious the situation in Kano will become if the virus isn't contained on time or he doesn't care at all..

The north with its illiterate and ignorant population will eventually be at the receiving end of this pandemic...

Nooo!!! Abeg

in as much as I don't support Ganduje for this that's if the news is not fake!!
why are you so obsessed with Kano??

Are you from kano?? What does this has to do with the illiteracy? (the inability to read and write)

How far about Lagos that is about to hit 1k?? Are they also illiterates??

Or are you just a tribal and religious bigot?

Ok

Lol

Na wa oo

Aboki governor. No sense.

FG, please don't listen to the Governor, because this is an avenue to toy with people's lives and at the end, comes to term that covid-19 is to reduce Muslim population. As a Governor, what collaborative measure has he put in place when we in Lagos, Ogun and Abuja were in total lockdown, nothing and waiting for FG to put things in place. FG should take full control of Kano on this matter of covid-19, the Governor should back out and learn from FG on the management of situation.

Oga want collect him 15billion by hook or crook

an igbo man will never be my president!!

I will rather vote a Yorubaman, a tiv man, calabar man, ijaw or even a foreigner than vote people who their only aim is to see the downfall of the North!

Please Arrewa & Anambralstson take your fight elsewhere.
