According to the actor, the only thing worse than the novel disease in Lagos right now is hunger.
He wrote:
“Dear Governor #Babajidesanwoolu, the only thing worse than Coronavirus in Lagos right now is HUNGER…
“I am an #Igbo man who knows #history, hunger is what ended the fighting spirits of Igbos during the civil war, so nobody should lecture me, ✏️it is laughable for us to follow #UK, #Italy or #Spain in doing lockdown without the necessary palliative for the masses 🤷♀️or have we forgotten so soon that over 80 million Nigerians allegedly live on less than one Dollar per day? 🤷♂️Even this 2 weeks #covid19 lockdown in #Lagos is making Lagosians cry and in serious hunger, 😭with over 20 million people allegedly living in Lagos, how many homes has Governor Babajide Sanwoolu reached with food and money? 🙄Is this how lockdown is in #London or #Rome? ✈️Is it the coronavirus our government at the state level is more interested in or the masses? 🙄 President Buhari has done fantastic in federal government palliative, what of our governors? They say a hungry man is an angry man, true or false?”
