The Kano state government said that viral video footage on social media about Sani Abacha Stadium (SAS) isolation centre, Kofar Mata, initiated by Coalition Against COVID (CACOVID), was a mischievous attempt to discredit the project.
Daily Trust reports that a statement signed by the commissioner for information, Malam Muhammad Garba, said there was no iota of truth in whatever the video clips attempted to portray.
Garba described the action as “mischievously attempting to misrepresent facts on the ongoing installation works at the centre.”
He said: “Whoever is behind the filming does so to deliberately distort the programme considering that even in the clip, it shows that the project is still ongoing but calculatedly moves away from filming the exercise just to accomplish the task of garbling the fact.”
The commissioner assured that the new 213-bed capacity Sani Abacha isolation centre as recommended by the relevant health authorities would soon be completed and put to use.
