A SPECIAL PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT
The attention of the Plateau State Government has been drawn to the flagrant disregard to government orders with regards to Corona Virus (COVID-19).
Notable is the Presidential order which imposed a curfew on the country lasting between
8.00 p.m. to 6.00 a.m each day! It is in this light therefore, that the Plateau State Government issues this reminder that the curfew so imposed is still in force and should be strictly observed until otherwise reviewed, failure of which culprits should have themselves to blame.
Furthermore, the state government hereby reminds it’s citizen that the wearing of masks is mandatory and should be ruthlessly enforced by the security agents saddled with such responsibility.
Government has also utterly noted with dismay, an emerging culture which negates all
intents and purposes in the name of jogging where people come out in their hundreds with total disregard to not only social distancing but in defiance of the lock down order.
Government would like to advice those involved to desist failure of which will act and be treated as an affront to constituted authority.
There are many ways you can exercise yourself without provocating and or testing the the will of government.
Government means well for its citizens at all times but it will not fold its arms and watch its orders being disregarded with ignominy.
Let us team up with Government in this fight against the pandemic that is threatening to engulf mankind.
LET’S THINK PLATEAU AND ACT PLATEAU.
Daniel Manjang,
Honourable Commissioner of Information and Communication,
Plateau State.
