Warri South Local Government Council, Boss Dr Michael Tidi, will today Wednesday, July 1st 2020, commence reinvigorated enforcement of COVID – 19 preventive rules in public places, including communities in the local government area.
According to the reports the move to commence reinvigorated enforcement of COVID – 19, was disclosed by the chairman of the newly inaugurated Warri South Council Anti COVID – 19 Enforcement Taskforce, Mr Elvis Okpako Eboh. He said this on Monday, June 29th 2020, at the council secretariat, shortly after Chairman of Warri South Local Government Area, Dr Michael Tidi, inaugurated the task force.
The inauguration of the enforcement task force is part of renewed efforts by the council authority to halt the spike in Coronavirus cases in the local government area.
Mr Eboh warned that his team would not tolerate the apparent negligence on the part of hoteliers, owners of pubs, organizers of social events, the action of some faith-based organizations and other institutions. He explained that violation affects the strict implementation of COVID – 19 preventive measures, while also declaring that it was time for everyone who flouts the COVID – 19 preventive rules to take responsibility for their recklessness.
While assuring the Warri South Local Government Chairman, he stated that members of the enforcement team are ready for the task.
Mr Eboh, who is also the Warri South Council Supervisor for Community Development, Youths and Sports, enjoined all public institutions and community leaders in the local government area to cooperate with his team. This according to him, will help to curb the spread of Coronavirus and create the right atmosphere for better socio-economic activities, in line with the philosophy of the Dr Michael Tidi led administration.
