Chairman of the Lagos State Chapter of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, Musiliu Akinsanya aka Mc-Oluomo, has said that the union is providing sanitizers at motor parks across the state to prevent any probable spread of the novel Coronavirus disease in the state.

Mc-Oluomo made this known on Thursday during a visit by the state ministry of health and strategy team to his office in Oko Oba area of the state.

He said, “In a bid to stop the ravaging Coronavirus, the union is contributing its quota by making hand sanitizers available at our parks.

“As we are aware, our members interact with different kinds of people at motor parks and this makes them vulnerable to infectious disease.

“We will also be holding an enlightenment campaign amongst our members to create awareness about the virus.”

The NURTW boss urged commercial drivers to maintain personal hygiene and cultivate regular handwashing habit.
