The Federal Government has said there will be consequences for Very Important Personalities (VIPs) and government officials who go against COVID-19 travel protocols.
National Coordinator of the Presidential Task Force (PTF) on Covid-19, Dr. Sani Aliyu, vowed to clamp down on any official that fails to obey travel protocols including undergoing compulsory COVID-19 tests after arrival in the country.
“We want to change people’s behaviour. We’ve shown that we are going to do it. We have done it and we will continue to do it every week until things change. It is not like we want to punish people but if you continue to put our country at risk, we will take action.

“Next week, we will publish another 100, subsequent weeks, we will continue to publish until we see an improvement in terms of the compliance. So, whether you are a VIP, whether you are a government official, whether you are in a leadership position, if you do not follow the travel protocols, there will be repercussions.
“We do not publish names because the essence of doing the entire exercise is to force people to comply with our protocols,” he said in a video posted on Twitter by the Ministry of Information and Culture on Wednesday.
Eko Hot Blog had reported that the PTF published the passport numbers of 100 travellers who evaded COVID-19 tests after returning into the country and banned them from leaving the country for six months from January to June 2021.
