Kehinde Ayodeji Bello has volunteered to distribute food supplies among the people of Ijebu East Local Government on Thursday following the lockdown ordered by the Federal and Ogun State governments.

President Muhammadu Buhari had, on Sunday, in a nationwide broadcast, announced the cessation of movements in Abuja, Lagos and Ogun States, for 14 days, effective from 11pm on Monday, as part of measures to curb the spread of coronavirus.

Though, the Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun announced the postponement of the ‘stay at home’ directive given by the President to this Friday.
