Some residents in Festac area of Lagos on Tuesday expressed displeasure over the 14-day extension of the lockdown in the state, saying one week would have been bearable, but not two.
Mrs Ngozi Felix, a civil servant, applauded the effort of the Federal Government in curbing the spread of the virus, but said that the situation in the country was not that bad as to warrant an extra 14 days lockdown. “There is hunger in the country right now, my neighbouring have been complaining of hunger for a few days now, I cook in big pots and share for them, but for how long?“I thought this was going to be over soon, but for an extra two weeks, I don’t know if I can continue feeding them,” she said.
“My husband retired since 2018 and doesn’t make any money, the sales I make from my shop feed us at home, I have four children that eat a lot.
Not only Mrs kelech, so many people we nt be able to
It is unfortunate how the Nigerian government are swift in applying policies from developed nation's yet fail to create systems that'll enable effectiveness of this policies.
Not only the woman, some of us can't even continue with this lockdown. We have to feed our children and our relatives in the village are calling for help. Even the so called common food is not common again.
Ho god
This is a real problem that needs attention
Okay it's only Mrs Kelchi Agu that you saw, what about other starving Nigerians who have nothing to live upon when the day breaks
Do government care 😭😭😭
