Chief John Nnia Nwodo, the President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has said that; “By the death of Alhaji Abba Kyari, all Nigerians should now understand that nobody, both high and low, is exempt from this ravaging pandemic and should observe strictly all precautionary measures put in place, especially social distancing.”
Chief Nwodo made the call in a condolence message to the President, over the death of his Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari.
Kyari died of Coronavirus complications on Friday and has since be buried in Abuja according to Islamic rites.
In the Press Statement, Nwodo said; “It is with shock that I learnt of demise of the Chief of Staff to the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Alhaji Abba Kyari, as a result of the deadly Coronavirus.
“On behalf of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, I commiserate with President Mohammed Buhari and the good people of the country on this unfortunate development.
“By the death of Alhaji Abba Kyari, all Nigerians should now understand that nobody, both high and low, is exempt from this ravaging pandemic and should observe strictly all precautionary measures put in place, especially social distancing.
“This exhortation becomes more imperative because from reports, the virus is said not to be a city case alone anymore, but has crept into communities, making it more ominous and dangerous.
May God save Nigeria.”
