IgbereTV reports that Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State has stated that Nigeriaโs economy is going into a state of depression, following the battle against the COVID-19 pandemic.
El-Rufai stated this while speaking to State House correspondents on Friday at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
He said, โThe economy is going to go into depression; there is nothing we can do about that; revenues have collapsed; yet you still have to invest in more public health facilities.
โMost of the leaders have to invest in treatment despite the condition and weighed to invest in security.โ
He further said that it is a difficult time for those at the leadership positions even as he called on all leaders to work in unity.
โThis time is a very difficult time to be in a leadership position and that is why the people and the leaders must all work together and pray for God to end this Coronavirus pandemic.
โIt is a major problem, but we are working together.”
