“We must wake up to the reality that COVID-19 is real; unlike what we witnessed in the first wave, the second wave we are witnessing now is more deadly.

“The rate at which people are contracting the virus coupled with the number of recorded deaths on a daily basis calls for serious precautions on our part,’’ Oyetola said.

The governor said the essence of the sensitisation programme was to remind residents, especially market women and drivers, on the need to follow all the prescribed guidelines to win the war against the virus.

In his remarks, Mr Yinusa Amobi, a member of House of Representatives, representing Iwo Federal Constituency, also urged residents of the town to support government in minimising the spread of the virus by following all the guidelines.

In his contribution, Mr Rafiu Ayofe, the Chairman of All Progressives Congress, Iwo Local Government, urged market men and women to always observe COVID-19  protocols.

“This is by regularly using their nose mask, washing of hands and use of hand sanitiser, maintaining of social distance, among others,’’  he said.

Mr Rahman Abiola, Chairman, Iwo East LCDA, and his counterpart in Olaoluwa South LCDA, Mr Adebiyi Adedayo, equally appealed to the people not to be unserious with the issue of COVID-19.

Mr Olajire Oyebode, the Osun State Chairman of the Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria (RTEAN), said that his members would continue to observe COVID-19  protocols at motor parks.

I would imagine he was starting from the premise that the majority of our countries emerged as colonial contraptions that did not follow the linear path of nation building and political evolution followed by the European Westphalian state. With regard to Nigeria, many commentators refer to “the mistake of 1914”. My friend Tony Nnaji, a jurist of uncommon erudition, has made the valid point that the 1914 amalgamation did not involve any plebiscite or consultation with the peoples so affected. It is self-evident that the British had no noble intentions in bringing us together. They did it for reasons linked to Weberian administrative rationality, including the need to build a war-economy at the wake of World War I. The mysterious hand of Providence is often at work in human affairs, as Cambridge historian Sir Herbert Butte...
