Read!: COVID-19: Ganduje issues stern warning as 19 members of one family test positive; Kano Governor Abdullahi Ganduje warned state citizens, in particular the business group, to strictly comply with the COVID 19 protocols.

The Governor said this at a COVID 19 stakeholders' conference at the Government House with business group leaders in the state on Thursday.

The governor, who was represented by his deputy, Nasiru Gawuna, said 19 members of the family tested positive for COVID-19 after the virus recently killed their breadwinner.

“This COVID-19 pandemic is real and we have to seriously fight it.

“There was a house where the breadwinner died of COVID-19 recently and when the family members were tested, 19 of them were found to be positive,” Ganduje said.

He cautioned that the second wave was stronger than the first wave and urged citizens to comply with procedures to avoid future lockdowns and the closing of state markets.

“We all know that it is the marketers that suffer most whenever there is a lockdown especially those who have to work to feed on a daily basis.

“Adhere to the necessary COVID-19 protocols to avoid the spread of the pandemic in the state and to avoid a situation that will necessitate the lockdown again,” the governor added.

Ganduje has promised 100,000 facemasks to be given to the business population.
