Corona Virus Lockdown: Provide Relief To Nigerians, Lawan tells Buhari


"If we have to eventually shut down our country , then as a government we must be prepared to have some relief for the most ordinary people. I ’m not seeing anything at the moment targeted at providing some relief. If we lock up Nigeria today, then we will wake -up trouble, because majority of our citizens go to market everyday before they can get something to eat".

 We need to have something, a plan of some sorts, in addition to making sure we don ’t lock up the farmers market for example, where people can easily go and buy something, and of course pharmacies. “We need to have some kind of supplies to people, I don’t know how we can achieve this, but we have to be ingenious. This is a time to think deep and wide, to provide for our people in order for us at least to deal with this challenge at the moment,” 
Senate President Lawan advised .
