According to him,
“In Nigeria, I have seen one positive thing about the management of the COVID-19.“We’ve seen the role played by the State governments, and some of the State governments are even looking at post-COVID-19 era and the economy of their people.”“I have seen now what could be described as the devolution of powers with the governors,”
