In a statement by the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, he stated that the Minister of State for Transportation, Senator Gbemisola Saraki will coordinate the donation.
“This global virus outbreak will require nations, continents and smaller communities to pull together to contribute their resources and support one another,” the minister of state for transportation was quoted as saying.
“This will facilitate an early resolution of the problem.”
