THE PRESIDENT OF THE NATIONAL UNION OF RIVERS STATE STUDENTS (NURSS) NATIONAL SECRETARIAT ON BEHALF OF ALL RIVERS STATE STUDENTS’ COMMENDS THE EXECUTIVE GOVERNOR OF RIVERS STATE FOR HIS PROACTIVE MOVES TO MITIGATE THE IMPACT OF THE CORONA VIRUS IN RIVERS STATE
The president of National Union of Rivers State Students’ (NURSS) National Secretariat, on behalf of the entire Rivers State students, commends the executive governor of Rivers State, His Excellency Chief Barr Gov Nyesom Ezenwo Wike – CON GSSRS POS (africa) for his recent moves geard towards protecting the good people of Rivers State.
This commendation was deemed necessary due to the recent moves made by the governor to decontaminate the state, especially our university environments and the recent free bus scheme covering Port Harcourt, Oyigbo, Eleme and Obio-Akpor Local Government Area in the bid to cushion the effect of the COVID-19.
We have understood that our university environments will also be decontaminated hence giving the students’ community hope for the various institutions within the state to resume as soon as possible because the students are ready to resume.
We also appreciate the free bus scheme as we understand that these buses will be helpful as students in Rivers State will also benefit from this scheme.
We describe these moves as thoughtful and timely; only one who loves his people will think of these things.
We therefore ask everyone to take advantage of the free bus scheme and also comply with the directives given by the state government as this will help facilitate the decontamination process.
As it is said, thank you is an application for more, therefore, we considered it necessary to also bring to your notice the need for the provision of testing kits and personal protective equipments within the various universities in the state.
These kits are very necessary as they will be used by various security sectors of the universities to ascertain the health condition of both students and staff before entry into the university.
Student understanding the need for their own safety, will also have to wash their hands at various checkpoints in the University and everyone will be made to adopt the constant use of PPEs.
If this is done, it will be observed that the universities will be able to stop the spread of corona virus with it’s environment.
Thank you our dear proactive governor.
Long live the government of Rivers State
Long live Rivers State
