If Nigeria has to re-introduce a lockdown as a result of figures spiralling out of control, we must make sure every household get a weekly supply of what I have nicknamed the Osinbajo Hamper

By Ayo Akinfe

With rising figures, the potential for an explosion in Kano and the virus spreading to all states, planning should now be underway about what should be done if that pandemic gets out of control. If you ask me, after seeing the irresponsible attitude of our citizens in Lagos and Abuja yesterday, I think it is inevitable that we will soon witness a frightening spread of the virus.

A people who refuse to observe social distancing of two meters are just inviting coronavirus upon themselves. When the new lockdown comes, we should make sure every family in each of our 774 local government areas get one of these hampers delivered to their doorsteps once a week.

It contains:

(1) One pack of 5kg of rice
(2) One pack of 5kg of gari
(3) One pack of 5kg of beans
(4) Two 5kg tubers of yam
(5) Two 600-gram loaves of bread
(6) One five litre bottle of cooking oil
(7) One crate of 30 eggs
(8) One 400-gram tin of powdered milk
(9) Six bottles of 1.5 litres of water
(10) Four 400-gram tins of tomatoes
