The Distinguished Senator,  representing Lagos East Senatorial District at the upper chamber in Abuja, Senator Mukhail Adetokunbo Abiru, FCA, on Monday, donated 150,000 facemasks to teachers and pupils of primary schools in Lagos East Senatorial District.

Senator Abiru handed over the protective materials to the leadership of the Lagos State Universal Basic Education Board, LASUBEB in Maryland Lagos.  

In his address, Abiru urged Nigerians to adhere strictly to COVID-19 safety measures stressing that the pandemic is still raging, MegaXpression reports. 

“The COVID-19 pandemic that ravaged the world for the better part of 2020 and is still raging till date created unimaginable crises for the entire mankind. 

“The complacency in the use of facemasks and other safety protocols among the general Nigerian public is dangerous. Infections rates are still terribly high. It is suicidal to let down our guard”.

On why he has decided to provide facemasks to pupils and their teachers in the Senatorial District, Senator Abiru averred that it is the duty of leaders to ensure that kids are protected against COVID-19 pandemic while in schools. 

He said, ‘Education being paramount on our agenda, we deem it expedient to support pupils and teachers of public primary schools in Lagos East with protective materials as a non- pharmaceutical measure to curtail the rate of infections in the schools.

“We cannot afford to fail young children who have chosen to learn. It is our duty as leaders to protect these minors who are the most vulnerable segment of the society in the context of the war against COVID-19 pandemic”.  
 
The Senator also promised to provide prescribed eye glasses to teachers in Lagos East who need them for better vision. 

“So today TACT is donating 150,000 face masks to pupils in the Lagos East Senatorial District to compliments necessary protocols against COVID-19. Aside from the protective materials that is being  handed over to the Lagos State Universal Basic Education Board, LASUBEB today, we shall be intervening by providing eye-glasses to teachers in LESD who need prescription eyeglasses to improve their vision after taking them through a formal eye examination”, Senator Abiru assured.
