Anambra State Commissioner for Health, Dr. Oliver Okpala thanked Governor Willie Obiano for supporting the work of the state’s COVID-19 Task Force by making the medical supplies available. According to him, “These items are in high demand globally as manufacturers are not meeting demand. It’s a challenging time for everybody but we are glad that Anambra state government was able to secure these. Luckily, we do not have a case of COVID-19 in the state at the moment, what we are doing at the moment is preparing and getting ready for any eventuality”.
