By Modupe Shodeinde
The Network for Civil Societies on Water and Sanitation (NEWSAN) has said that Nigerians have stopped compliance to protocols developed by the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 to curb the virus.
Project Manager, NEWSAN, Dr. Andrew Agboro, disclosed this at the launch of the USAID E-WASH CSO COVID-19 prevention campaign organised by the Widows and Orphans Empowerment Organisation (WEWE) on Tuesday.
He warned that the virus is still dangerous and life threatening, and there was still the need to defeat this virus through collaboration.
He said: “People are no longer complying with the COVID-19 protocols. We need collaboration to defeat this virus.
“Here in Delta State people know that COVID-19 is real, people know that washing of hands can prevent the disease, but they are no longer complying.
“The virus took us unaware as people were not prepared for the outbreak of the virus.
“I also had some doubts until I contracted the virus. COVID-19 is real. We need to join hands and obey the rules by the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC).
The National Almirah, Federation of Muslim Women Association (FOMWAN), Halima Jibril, said that the virus has entered the community level, and there is a need to increase the awareness level.
