Mr @NGRPresident @MBuhari , you are disrespecting citizens of this country with your opaque leadership at this time of national crisis.
Your conduct earns you a permanent 👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾.
You may be in office but definitely not in power, Mr President.

The former minister, however, tweets further to applaud Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu for his leadership in the state and efforts he is making in fighting the deadly COVID-19 pandemic.

She tweeted:

The technical team of experts at @NCDCgov led by @Chikwe_I and his colleagues and complimented by the solid team @LSMOH led by @ProfAkinAbayomi have proven that we do have the right competence to ultimately win the war against the deadly virus.

Kudos to you . We thank you all.
