Sequel to the demise of one of its members, Hon. Tunde Braimoh last Friday, the leadership of the Lagos House of Assembly has directed its members to go for COVID-19 test.
The lawmaker representing Ifako Ijaiye 1 constituency, Hon. Adewale Adedeji, disclosed this in statement announcing he has done the test, which he said turned out negative.
According to him: “As directed by the leadership of the Lagos State House of Assembly, On Sunday, 12th of July, 2020; I went and submitted myself for the COVID-19 test, and I have gotten my result. The test result came out NEGATIVE.
“To this end, it is our collective responsibility to be more careful and observe all the stipulated and given rules to help us prevent the transmission of this deadly virus”.
He advised every one must: “Wash your hands for 30 seconds regularly, avoid social gatherings, maintain social distancing and at all times wear a face mask, the use of hand sanitisers should become a habit and finally, avoid touching your face and nose.
“I thank Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu and his Deputy Obafemi Hamzat for proactively and tirelessly fighting this pandemic and I pray we won’t be part to its destruction”. (The Nation)
