Why Cross River Has Not Recorded COVID-19 Case Is Simple- Ayade Reveals

Cross River State Governor Ben Ayade says the state has not recorded any case of COVID-19 because of the strategies that have been employed.

The governor said this in an interview on Channels Television breakfast programme on Thursday, saying Cross Rivers State responded quickly to the pandemic by shutting its borders, closing airways and declaring ‘No Mask No Movement.’

He added that he personally kept vigil at borders to ensure safety.

“As soon as we started reading in the papers and watching on Television the impact of the pandemic globally. What we did as a state was to quickly respond to it by blocking our state against the virus. We locked our borders immediately and commenced ‘No Mask No Movement’. We were proactive and we have continued to sustain that.

“Also, because we share borders with Cameroon, we ordered over 100 brand new vehicles. Policed all our borders, between Nigeria and Cameroon, including the legal and illegal. We ensured that we blocked all access to other states. We closed our airways.
