In a bid to support the Federal Government’s efforts to combat the Covid-19 pandemic in the country, 43 Cabinet ministers in Nigeria modeled exemplary roles as they donate 50% of their March salaries as reinforcements in the ongoing battle with the virus.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Saturday, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, quoted the Minister of State for Transportation, Sen. Gbemisola Saraki, who coordinated the donation, said it was a gesture of solidarity and support for the Federal Government’s efforts to tackle the disease.
”This global virus outbreak will require nations, continents and smaller communities to pull together to contribute their resources and support one another.
This will facilitate an early resolution of the problem,” Alhaji Mohammed further quoted Senator Saraki as saying.
Meanwhile, the Ministers also commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his leadership role in addressing the COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria.
