One of the sources lamented that while the Federal Government had announced the total lockdown of Lagos, Abuja and Ogun, some foreigners not tagged essential were still allowed to fly into the country.
The source said: “I think this is very unfortunate. How can you allow foreigners to enter the country without going through the usual test screening despite the high rate of COVID-19 in the country?
“Someone said the Americans would be isolated in Calabar for 14 days. I don’t think that is enough excuse for them to pass through the Lagos airport without screening at the airport. I just hope everyone is save in this country because some people have exhibited selfishness in their approach.”
It would be recalled that America is battling to overcome the deadly virus with high number of deaths recorded daily in the North American country, while new cases are daily recorded.
Meanwhile, some European countries are evacuating their citizens from Nigeria because of the high rate of the virus in the country.
For instance, Air France last Thursday evacuated 378 European nationals from Nigeria through the Lagos airport, while Air Peace on Friday operated a charter flight to Israel with Israeli nationals who left the country.
