COVID-19: Group Lauds Wike For Proactive Steps, Tasks UN, WHO On Cure
As the world groan over the Coronavirus pandemic, a Pan African Organisation, Africa Global Development for Positive Change Initiative (Adi-Africa) has called on the United Nations and World Health Organisation (WHO) to redouble effort on the discovery of a cure for the virus.
The international president of the organisation which has branches in seven African countries, Prince Dan Mbachi, who stated this in an interview with newsmen in Port Harcourt, said the global lockdown had increased poverty and hunger across the continent.
Mbachi said reports from across the African continent showed rising level of hunger and deprivations.
He said lockdown was not the solution to the spread of the virus, but the quick development of vaccines.
“I want to call on the United Nations and World Health Organisation (WHO) to redouble their effort to find out remedy for Coronavirus to enable people go back to work.
“Many people are dying of hunger. Shutting down will not solve the problem,” he said.
Mbachi said Adi-Africa had been reaching out to its members across the African continent and the rest of the world to apply all necessary instructions from the United Nations and their respective governments to keep off from the virus.
Mbachi particularly commended Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State for the proactive steps taken so far to combat the spread of the disease to Rivers State.
According to him, the governor must not relent in his effort to check the spread of the disease to the state.
The Adi-African international president also called on the people of Rivers State to give their full supports to Governor Wike.
