With the curfew declared on all States by the Federal Governments as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic still in effect, the state Commissioner for Health and Chairman COVID-19, Dr Betta Edu has commended residents for the massive compliance.
Speaking on Thursday, when she led the state's COVID-19 taskforce team on an inspection tour along the Calabar metropolis, Dr Betta Edu noted that residents complied by shutting down all public places that attracted costumers and large gatherings operating mostly at night.
In her words; "As you can see, i must say there's a 98% compliance with this directives so far and am very impressed with the response. This is one of the reasons why the State is still free of COVID-19, we have one of the most refined, health conscious and cooperative population in Nigeria. The Government of Sen. Ben Ayade will continue to put in place all necessary preventive modalities to maintain the COVID-19 free status quo".
Also following the Governor, Senator Ben Ayade's directive for all civil servants to return to work, the state ministry of health, in keeping everyone safe, came up with some guidelines and preventive measures in all places and offices, for which compliance by staff and client has been very high.
