Happening Now ! NIMC Offices Continue As Covid19 Super Spreader Centres

The National Identity Management Commission have continued as super spreader centres for the highly contagious covid19.

Staff of the Commission called off their one-day strike today after the management assured them that their grievances would be addressed within the shortest time possible.

The State Government has continued to shut down events centres where large crowds gather in breach of laid down health protocols.

Isolation centres and health workers are currently overwhelmed by the influx of patients as death tolls spiral by the hour across isolation centres.

Zaddy Fife@femijoel24· “Dear @jidesanwoolu it is in the best interest of the state that you shutdown the national identification center right in Alausa“

Sunkanmi Balogun@i_ballyclems· “I did modification of date of birth in March last year at Alausa. I got the NIN slip Wednesday last week but I stood at the entrance of the gate for over 7hrs because we were not allow to go in. On the other hand, people with car that know someone are allowed to go in”

Toyosi WellBeing Couture @toyosky4real· “This is a NIN registration centre at Alausa, Lagos this morning…and we are fighting Covid-19. I just can’t understand.”

GoddyWalker Esq @ogar_godwin· “Bro Lagos State govt are not helping matters, the same govt that’s telling us Covid-19 is on the rise is also telling people to come get their NIN at Alausa. You need to see the queue there. This people are mad”

Mkyari@IamMkyari· “With all noise about corona virus second wave & all, our clueless leaders still don’t deem it fit to cancel this #NIN registration that is putting Nigerians at risk of getting infected & spreading it. This is #NIN office Alausa this morning. How does this makes sense?”

Dear Governor sir, are you aware that there's a tulmultuous crowd at the Alausa NIMC centre?
What rationale is behind allowing such exercise in the heat of a pandemic in it's second wave that we barely can control at the moment?
Why arrest club goers? What is the difference? https://t.co/MxNIQPA6H2
