Ola Muritala On COVID-19: No Sane Individual Will Play Politics With Current Perilous Corona Virus Pandemic, Let There Be Decorum




It is highly disheartening seeing some members of the opposition playing politics with the current predicament in the country and Ogun State in Particular.

I read on the social media network where the All People's Movement (APM) Gubernatorial Candidate in the last governorship election in Ogun State, Hon. Abdulkabr Adekunle Akinlade accused that "10 months ago, many members of Gov. Abiodun Administration allegedly berated ex Gov. Amosun for deploying the state's resources in constructing what they describe as a needless 250-bed ultra modern hospital and further said, today, the facility is among one of the equipped medical outfits in the country". Hon. Akinlade further asked if former governor Amosun knew the country will encounter Coronavirus epidemic and he answered No. I have nothing much to speak about but would only like to humbly advise the APM chieftain and others who may also like to play politics with the current situation to please suspend all politics regarding that for now and join hands together with the government at Federal, State and Local levels to battle the deadly mass spreading Perilous disease. This is not the time for anyone to play politics at all. However, has anyone told Hon. Akinlade that Gov. Dapo Abiodun will not build times 10 of what the Ex governor Amosun built? After all, Governor Amosun did not build the said ultra modern hospital in his first day in office or his first year. So, why comparing and contrasting? Not even at this delicate time. We still have a lot of politics to play but not now.

We should continue to appreciate our government most especially, the government of our State, Ogun State under the leadership of a good hearted Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun MFR, for measures so far being taken to curb this Perilous disease rather than making comparison between the past and the present and also praising one's Master but casting aspersions on the current government and Leadership.

  Our prayer should be 'Mercy of God over us and our leaders" not to play politics. May God save us from the deadly Coronavirus and forgive us our sins.
