NCDC Says The Country Is Now Reaching A Critical Covid-19 Level As Many Civil Servants Test Positive In Lagos

The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control says the country is now reaching a critical level, adding that the hospital capacity will no longer be able to cope with more serious COVID-19 cases.

The Director-General of the NCDC, Dr. CHIKWE IHEKWEAZU, said this in a series of tweets while reacting to the spike in COVID-19 infections in the last one month.

IHEKWEAZU said this as the fear of COVID-19 spread at the National Identity Management Commission grew on Monday because Nigerians besieged the NIMC offices following the workers' suspension of the strike they embarked upon on Thursday.

He disclosed that the Centre would from next week roll out rapid diagnosis test kits in five tertiary hospitals in Abuja while the facility would be extended nationwide from February.

The music star made this known via his Twitter page on Monday, January 11, 2021.

"Banning someone from a social media platform simply because you don't agree with their opinions is a classic demonstration of tyranny," he tweeted.

The rapper's tweet may be connected to the recent developments in the United States of America.

It would be recalled that the outgoing president of the United States, Donald Trump was banned from several social media platforms for what has been perceived as inciting violence.

Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and several other social media platforms axed the 45th president of the country from their platforms after the violence that took place at the US Capitiol.
