 Putin woos African leaders at showcase summit, says Russia is better partner than 'colonial' West President Vladimir Putin told African leaders ​on Wednesday that Russia was their best partner, accusing what he cast as a colonial West of still trying ‌to exploit the continent's resources and using debt to hold back development, Reuters reported. The Kremlin chief was speaking at the third Russia-Africa Summit in Moscow, a two-day event attended by African leaders and government delegations from 48 countries, during which he will hold one-on-one talks with many of the 22 individual African leaders ​attending on everything from trade to security, arms deals and grain supplies. "Africa is increasingly asserting itself as one of the key players in the global economy and politics. However, the emergence of a multipolar world is, of ​course, no easy task; it faces resistance from countries that are not prepared to accept this reality: those who are accustomed to ​thinking i...

CORONAVIRUS: NO ONE ESCAPED FROM ISOLATION CENTER-OGSG.{PHOTO}.#PRESS RELEASE.

Image may contain: text
     Our attention has been brought to the fake news making rounds on the social media that the taxi driver of the index case of coronavirus patient in the country has escaped.
Everyone that had any link with the Italian victim of the dreaded virus since he arrived the country has been quarantined. The others, who these primary contacts also had interactions with are equally being monitored.
The fake news also alluded to the imaginary driver demanding the sum of N100m ( One hundred million naira) from the Commissioner for Health, Dr. Tomi Coker and threatening to spread the disease if not paid. Nothing can be further from the truth.
We wish to put it straight that there is nothing of such. It is the figment of the imagination of some unscrupulous elements whose desire is to incite fear in the members of the public.
This period calls for sombre, responsible and responsive actions. COVID-19 is challenging the global community like no other disease in the past. The government is treating the challenge as such. How to contain and provide lasting solution to the scourge is our concern. We do not wish to dissipate energy on responding to this kind of frivolity. We all must be sensitive at this critical time in our history.
As a government, we assure that all the people already quarantined are in good spirit and they are cooperating with our medical personnel.
Besides, we already have the phone number of some few other contacts the Italian national came close to and they are being monitored.
There is no reason to panic. The situation is being controlled and contained.
It is therefore important we do what is expected of us as individuals in terms of personal hygiene and in ensuring that we sensitize those suspected of symptoms associated with COVID-19.
If you suspect any case, please, call the Ogun State Epidemiologists on:
08188978393 or 08188978392.
E-signed
Kunle Somorin
Chief Press Secretary to Governor Dapo Abiodun.
