Group To FG: All Those Who Attended Abba Kyari's Funeral Should Be Quarantined by Officialhorlah(m): 6:42am On Apr 19, 2020 |
- A civil rights advocacy group has condemned the mammoth crowd that attended the funeral of Late Abba Kyari - The group, Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, lamented that mourners at the funeral failed to observe the social distancing rule - The group asked the NCDC to trace all those who attended the ceremony and place them on quarantine for 14 days A civil rights advocacy group, Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, has asked the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) to trace and place on quarantine for 14 days everyone that witnessed the funeral rites of Mallam Abba Kyari. Kyari, the former chief of staff to President Muhammadu Buhari died on Friday, April 17 and was buried in Abuja on Saturday, April 18. At his funeral, a large crowd converged to pay him his last respect, disrespecting the social distancing rules of the NCDC. HURIWA in a statement signed by its national coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko lamented that hundreds of mourners who turned up at the funeral failed to observe the social distancing rule. Part of the statement read: “The government must be seen following to the letter all the well thought out rules and regulations mapped out for our good public good at this time pending the relaxation of the lockdown order by the federal government of Nigeria. “Laws are to be obeyed by all and sundry. In all parts of the world, it has never been known that elaborate and colourful funeral events are celebrated for persons who unfortunately passed on after catching up with the dreaded health condition of COVID-19. “This public show of total disregard for the laws that were rolled out and signed publicly by President Muhammadu Buhari as manifested by the rich and powerful who turned up for the burial ceremony must never be allowed to go the way of other illegalities in our clime.” Meanwhile, the lnter Party Advisory Council (IPAC) says it is deeply pained over the demise of the chief of staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, Mallam Abba Kyari. A statement by IPAC's national chairman, Dr Leonard Nzenwa, says the council is heartbroken over the death of Kyari. “The death of Abba Kyari has driven the danger of this disease. It is a wake-up call for all Nigerians to rise up to fight the pandemic and obey government directives to contain its spread,” the council said. https://www.legit.ng/1322227-abba-kyari-huriwa-funeral-attendees-quarantined.html

Those that attended the burial should not only be quanrantine, they should b made to face the law for violation of protocol on COVID-19. Fine and community service will be appropriate just like the case of Funke Akindele. |
