Rubbish ☹️ The truth is that even if they extend the lockdown till end of the year, more people will continue to test positive to the virus because a lot of people still do their normal travels from state to state. The only thing is that the lockdown has made transport fares to be doubled. They're making the rules and they are ones breaking the rules because they have their men everywhere on our roads. I guess they're busy collecting tips from the drivers instead of doing the right thing. They have only succeeded in making life more difficult for the law abiding citizens of Nigeria. Relevance seekers indeed💃💃💃💃💃💃💃
