Nakwada said the House commended the Task force for its unmatched commitment toward the fight against the disease.

He added that its commitment and effort has already yielded positive results in the state.

He said that the House also commended Gov. Bala Muhammed for managing the pandemic effectively and alleviating the hardship caused by the pandemic on residents.

“Through enlightenment and medical support and protective measures, the Governor and the Task Force led by the Deputy Governor, have done remarkably well.
