COVID-19: Enugu State government commences decontamination of all court premises, offices, fuel stations

The Enugu State Fire Service, today, commenced the decontamination and fumigation of all court premises and offices in the state, starting from the State Judiciary Headquarters complex at the Independence Layout, Enugu.

Briefing newsmen at the State High Court complex, the State Chief Fire Officer, Engr. Okwudiri Ohaa, said that the ongoing exercise was directed by Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi in furtherance of his administration’s efforts to contain the spread of Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) in Enugu State.

Engr. Ohaa explained that the first phase of the decontamination will cover the High Courts and Magistrates Courts, while the second phase will be the turn of the Customary Courts.

Noting that the court premises are among the sensitive places that attract influx of people, the Chief Fire Officer recalled that the administration of Gov. Ugwuanyi had recently carried out the decontamination exercise in Enugu metropolis and its environs, all major markets in the state, motor parks, hospitals, among other high traffic areas.

Engr. Ohaa who disclosed that the exercise will be repeated in some of the areas, pointed out that “from here (State High Court complex) we go to filling stations where essential services are also being rendered”.

He added that the exercise will equally be extended to “Nsukka zone and Awgu zone”, stressing that “it is only Enugu State that has been consistent in the decontamination and disinfection of its environs”.

His words: “The records are there; we have covered over 300 high human traffic areas in the state and we are continuing. The substance we are using for the fumigation and decontamination is powerful chlorine disinfectant mixed with calcium hypochlorite. It is internationally recognized and not harmful to health”.

Responding, the Chief Registrar of the State High Court, Mrs. Martha Aroh-Onuoha, on behalf of the Chief Judge, Hon. Justice Priscilla Ngozi Emehelu, thanked Gov. Ugwuanyi for his administration’s sheer commitment to safety, health and wellbeing of the people of the state.

The Chief Registrar said that decontamination exercise coincided with the directive of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Hon. Justice Ibrahim Tanko Muhammad, “that all courts should be decontaminated”, describing the exercise by the state government as a welcome development.

Life has to continue. Charles Darwin's Law at play here. Some people will come out strong and some will not. But we will come out strong, don't be afraid because fear kills faster. Just believe you will...

Enugu Amaka

Exercise! They will say no, be eating wraps of akpu and okpa up and down.
How can you be carrying stomach up and down like a pregnant woman,
Abi na beer and pepper soup dey cause am, what do I know sef


Meanwhile,
push your business to your customer's doorstep this period of lockdown online, chat me let me create a business online presence for you where you can display your wares and get orders from people online.

It is well. How did they select the places to decontaminate?

O

I couldn't see any decontamination but men with big belly trying to mop the floor.

Sanwo oluomo sef

Commendable

Ok

Everything na format to steal. Corona cannot survive 12 hours on those surfaces. Just leave it overnight

I thought they said the heat from the sun kills corona virus and decontaminates public places.

THIS COVID STRONG OO

Look at the last picture are those fire fighters with such pot belly or what?

Coronavirus go just dey laff, fake decontamination

Hope it's not another way of eating public funds, it seems to me that almost all the states are trying to use this pandemic to cash out.

But does this really make sense.

I am ignorant, Pls educate me

This is what emperor Wike should be doing during his 24 hour lockdown. So far I see no point in the exercise. No fumigation, no increased testing, nothing. Just grandstanding. I await bashing from his supporters/those benefitting but the truth is the truth. Peace

Does this work

Very good from Gburugburu

Wastage of state resources. I thought corona doesn't survive high temperatures.
