Veteran dancehall singer, Daddy Showkey has slammed Nigerians flouting social distancing and other directives introduced to combat the coronavirus pandemic after the lockdown was relaxed.
TheNewsGuru recalls that President Muhammadu Buhari had, in his last nationwide broadcast, announced the gradual easing of the lockdown in Lagos, Ogun and Abuja — which took effect from May 4.
Sadly, some citizens of the country appeared to have been flouting the different guidelines put in place to prevent the spread of the novel disease.
On Monday ,video clips and pictures flooded the internet where some Nigerians could be seen gathering in front of banks and inside vehicles, thereby violating some of the federal government’s directives and conditions for easing the lockdown.
Reacting to the development, self- proclaimed ‘Ghetto Soldier’, Daddy Showkey said it was unfortunate that such Nigerians have no regard for laws and their lives.
“Nigerians cannot obey simple law. Observe social distancing, wash your hands among others, but they won’t do them. This is the beginning of the deaths if they won’t adhere to what the government is saying.
“Instead of you all sitting down in your homes, you went to the bank to rush yourselves. Don’t you know you’re joking with your lives? Don’t you value your lives? After, you people will start saying government wants to loot money.”
The singer also called such Nigerians “stupid”, he urged people to take matters relating to their lives serious, adding that only those alive can complain of no food.
“Some Nigerians are saying there is no coronavirus, make God not let it happen to you. We are tired of talking about that several,” he said.
