Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu today announced that Lagos state has set up an emergency food bank.

Sanwo-Olu said the economic stimulus package is to help cushion the effects of the #StayAtHome directive to stop the spread of #COVID19.

“I am happy to announce an economic stimulus package to help our residents cushion the effects of our #StayAtHome directive to stop the spread of #COVID19.

This first stage is targeting 200,000 households at an estimation of 6 people per household. We hope to ramp it up quickly.

The stimulus package will contain bags of rice, beans, garri, bread, dry pepper, drinking water and vitamins. We want each ration to last for 14 days as we continue to evaluate the impact of #COVID19.

Please stay home with your loved ones. We want the best for you.”
