Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, has expressed solidarity with the family of media mogul, High Chief Raymond Dokpesi, and members of his family who tested positive to COVID-19.

In a statement released by the Atiku Media Office, the Waziri Adamawa called on all well-meaning Nigerians to put the matter of the speedy recovery of Chief Dokpesi and his family, and other victims of the COVID-19 pandemic in prayers.

The former vice president described Dokpesi as a patriotic and law-abiding Nigerian for cooperating with the NCDC to carry out the test on him, his staff and entire family when it was earlier discovered that his son had tested positive.

He noted that Dokpesi was not among those who would because of their position and influence shy away from a civic duty, adding, “He is indeed a role model worthy of emulation.”

The Wazirin Adamawa therefore urged Nigerians, in the face of the prospects of the relaxation of restrictions of the past five weeks, to continue to abide by all the known protocols set out by the NCDC.

These protocols, according to him, include hand wash, avoiding crowded areas, observing social distancing, using face masks and hand sanitisers to achieve victory over the pandemic and roll back the situation by stopping further infections.

Atiku also called attention to the situation in Kano, referring to it as a litmus test to winning the battle against COVID-19.

He called on the Federal Government and all agencies involved in the fight against the pandemic to collaborate with the Kano State government to stem the spread of the plague in the state.

Atiku stressed that checkmating the pandemic in the state was one sure way of ensuring safety of people in the surrounding states to Kano, other parts of the North and the country.

He expressed his deepest condolences over the spate of deaths in Kano State in recent times, counselling that efforts should be geared towards providing plausible explanation of the situation for the good of the people of the state.
