SAHARANEWS – The residents of Lagos State have taken to the streets to lament and even challenge members of the state’s task force amid lockdown to curtail the deadly Coronavirus.
In a video obtained by SaharaNews which has gone viral on social media, the residents stated that hunger and epileptic power supply makes it difficult for them to stay at home.
Governor Babajide Sanwo-olu of Lagos state on Tuesday, March 24, issued a sit-at-home order across the state to enable the government tackle further spread of coronavirus.
A week later, President Muhammadu Buhari in a nationwide broadcast, ordered a lockdown across Lagos, Abuja and Ogun states as part of measures to curb the disease.
However, since the lockdown order by Buhari took effect on Monday, 30th March by 11pm, there have been many criticisms and outcries as citizens lambasted government for not providing palliatives to enable people cope during the shutdown.
