Celebrities Pledge Supports For Masses In Wake Of Coronavirus Outbreaks

 

It is no longer news that Nigeria keeps recording cases of coronavirus as each day goes by and celebrities have deemed it fit to sensitise their fans and also provide supports in their little ways.

Allnews reports that Nigeria, in the early hours of Wednesday, recorded two more cases, raising the number to 46 in the country.

Celebrities who are sometimes perceived to be the mouthpiece of the masses when certain issues arise have also seen it as responsibilities to protect Nigerians.

In their posts on social media handles, some have taken it upon themselves to provide sanitizers, face masks, and foodstuff as a result of the economic situation occasioned by the outbreak.

Nollywood star actress, Toyin Abraham, did not only sensitise Nigerians on precautionary measures, but she also made donations of foodstuff such as rice, garri, noodles for Ibadan, Abeokuta and Ilorin residents.

Hours ago, Nigerian indigenous rapper, CDQ Olowo, said he slashed 30% off his tenants' annual rents.

CDQ who announced this on his Instagram handle, says it is not an attempt to show off, but to pass a message on the need to help people who need assistance.

So I was on the phone with my lil brother last-night for almost 2hrs discussing the issue of this deadly Corona Virus... I’ve never spoken to him for this long before ?‍♀️ Last night I realized how much I’m meant to have loved him... mostly I’m always concerned about my mum and my little sister, and I’ll be like after-all he’s a guy he’ll be fine ? So last night we concluded on taking some burdens off the people that are attached to the little properties we have control over in this temporal hard time. I believe if there’s no productive activities happening with the ongoing shut-down issues everywhere right now, there has to be a way we can be rational and fair to ourselves to make life easy for our fellow humans... cos against all odds...we are all we’ve got ❤️ I’m actually posting this not as a show off but to commence a movement that will probably influence everyone with good heart out there to make life easy in this hard time for anyone under or attached to us somehow... Thank You ? #StaySafe #Woss #LifeisQuality #MayGodHealTheWorld #WeAreAllWeHaveChallenge
