Ministers donate 50% of their March salaries to support the fight against Coronavirus

The 43 Ministers in the Federal executive Council have donated 50% of
their March 2020 salaries to support the Federal Government’s efforts
to combat the COVID-19 pandemic in the country.

In a statement issued in Abuja today Saturday March 27th, the
Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, quoted the Minister
of State for Transportation, Senator Gbemisola Saraki, who coordinated
the donation, as saying it was a gesture of solidarity and support for
the Federal Government’s efforts to tackle the disease.

”This global virus outbreak will require nations, continents and
smaller communities to pull together to contribute their resources and
support one another. This will facilitate an early resolution of the
problem,” Lai Mohammed further quoted Senator Saraki as saying.

The Ministers also commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his leadership role in addressing the COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria.
