PRESIDENCY: NIGERIANS SHOULD COMPLY WITH MANDATORY MASK WEARING TO AVERT LOCKDOWNS.{PHOTO}.#PRESS RELEASE.

  The Presidency is worried by reports of non-compliance with just signed Executive Order that makes mask wearing and observation of social distancing in the public mandatory, appealing to Nigerians to give their maximum cooperation for success of the policy. President Muhammadu Buhari introduced the order with the best of intentions and not with any motive to punish citizens. The Presidency appeals to State Governments, traditional rulers and religious leaders to play active roles in the sensitization and enforcement of the Executive Order. To achieve this, COVID-19 task forces and committees should persuade members of the public to cooperate with the government in achieving compliance and avoid crude methods that may create resistance and resentment, thereby defeating the primary goal of the Executive Order. The Buhari administration is most reluctant to lockdown the country and continues to emphasize the non-pharmaceutical measures and the only way to avert lockdowns is to obser...

  Queen Elizabeth will host new U.S. President Joe Biden and other world leaders at Buckingham Palace before a summit of the G7 big economies in June, the Sunday Times newspaper reported. Describing it as a “soft power” reception, the Sunday Times said the Queen would be joined by the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cornwall and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

  The Federal Government has said Nigeria's low rating in the 2020 Transparency International Corruption Perception Index (TI-CPI) does not truly reflect the great strides by the country in its fight against corruption. In a statement issued in Abuja on Sunday, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, assured that the country's anti-corruption agenda, which has placed great emphasis on corruption prevention measures and the building of integrity systems, remains on course. The Minister said the implementation of the various reforms, especially in the Ease of Doing Business, is expected to yield positive outcomes in the country’s corruption perception and other relevant assessments in the next 12 to 24 months. ''For instance, following the release of the 2019 TI-Corruption Perception Index, the government initiated reforms to improve on Nigeria’s Ease of Doing Business indices.

  January 31, 2021 Press Statement PDP Expresses Dismay By Buhari’s Violation of COVID-19 Law...Charges Nigerians Not to Follow Such Examples The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expressed dismay over President Muhammadu Buhari’s reported violation of his own executive regulation on COVID-19, which provides for 6-months jail term for defaulters.
