#Coronavirus: Another total lockdown would be Counterproductive – Festus Keyamo warns

Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo had opined that imposing another lockdown to curb the spread of the coronavirus in the country would be counter-productive.

Recall the Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, hinted that a second lockdown could be on the horizon due to the rate at which residents have consistently flouted the social-distancing guidelines issued prior to easing the initial one-month lockdown on May 4.

Keyamo, in his personal opinion, opposed that idea, he wrote;

”My personal view is that another total lockdown would be counterproductive. Before defeating the virus, we must learn to live with it all around us & practice the skills of avoiding it like a landmine. Practice makes perfect. We cannot perfect those skills by locking ourselves up”
