Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili has said that Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State has done more in the fight against COVID-19 than the central leadership.

Since the first case of COVID-19 was recorded in Lagos, Sanwo-Olu and the ministry of health in the state have been giving regular updates to the public on their fight against the virus.

Just yesterday, MyNigeria.com reported that six of the those who tested positive to the virus and being treated have now recovered and will be discharged.

This is asides the first two cases who were discharged weeks ago after recovering from the virus due to the care given to them under the supervision of the Lagos State Government.

Reacting to the development, Ezekwesili applauded Sanwo-Olu for his efforts so far.

She tweeted: “There must be many Nigerians who like me daily applaud the Governor of Jide Sanwo-Olu for the impressive political leadership he’s showing at a sub-national level.

“You, Mr. Governor have been an effective gap-filler for an absent Central leadership. We thank you.”
