“We urge the federal government to ensure that the conditional cash transfers ordered by President Buhari for the most vulnerable in our society, for the next two months and the relieve materials for the internally displaced persons do not become another conduit pipe for syphoning the national treasury.
“We call on President Muhammadu Buhari to sustain such briefing at this challenging time to give bite to the activities of the stakeholders in the fight against the spread of COVID-19 in the country.
“We urge citizens across the country to abide by the standard protocol in managing the spread of the coronavirus pandemic in all parts of the country.

“The CNPP appreciates spirited Nigerians who have been contributing in cash and material donations towards tackling the pandemic.
We urge more Nigerians to show the true Nigerian spirit of love for one another by contributing cash and materials to assist the most vulnerable in the society at this trying times as most of the Nigerian masses live by daily incomes they earn”, the CNPP stated.
