The Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 has commended the Ooni of Ife, Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi,Ojaja II for donating four motorised modular fumigators (two each to the PTF and the FCT) to help combat the novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19.
At the National Briefing by the PTF on Monday, the task force Chairman and Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha, also mentioned the United Nations (UN) Basket and European Union for praise.
According to him, they have delivered a second tranche of PPEs, medical supplies and equipment to aid Nigeria’s response to COVID-19.
“The PTF wishes to thank all Nigerians that continue to respond to call for involvement in the National Response,” Mustapha said.
“In this regard, we thank the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, for donating four motorized modular fumigators (two each to the PTF and the FCT).
“In the same vein, we want to appreciate the UN Basket and European Union for delivering the second tranche of the PPEs, medical supplies and equipment.”
It will be recalled that the Ooni had 3 months ago flagged off the charity project of locally modular motorized fumigators which he intended to distribute free of charge to the government and relevant institutions across Nigeria with a view to complement the efforts of government in the ongoing fight against the rampaging Covid-19 pandemic.
In fulfillment of his promise, he had physically toured the Southwest and crisscrossed the other 5 geopolitical zones on the country through his Ooni Covid-19 Intervention Team(OCIT) donating two fumigators to each of the 36 states which climaxed last Thursday with his delegation donating 4 fumigators to the Federal Government of Nigeria received y the SGF and the PTF Chairman, Boss Mustapha, represented by Permanent Secretary, SGF office, Sir Olusegun Adekunle.
