The Edo State Government has urged members of the state chapter of the National Union of Road Transport Workers not to pick passengers who are not wearing face masks.
A member of the Edo State COVID-19 Risk Communication Team, Mrs Irene Uabor, made the appeal while addressing members of the NURTW, during a sensitisation programme with stakeholders in the transport sector.
She said, “Don’t take any passenger who is not wearing a face mask. If we all practice all the guidelines put in place by the authorities, we will win the war against the deadly disease together.”
The state Vice-Chairman of the NURTW, Mr John Odiase, said the leaders of the union would ensure that members complied with all the guidelines to curb the spread of COVID-19.
