Gombe govt warns against politicising fight against COVID-19

The Gombe state government has warned against any attempt to politicise the fight against coronavirus in the state.

The state commissioner for information and culture, Mr Ibrahim Kwami, said it had become imperative to caution against such attempts.

Kwami stated that the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on states and countries across the world had made it quite dangerous for anyone to share fake news with political intent about the virus.

He said all hands must be on deck in the fight against COVID-19 regardless of political divide noting that the virus does not discriminate while killing people.
