Nollywood Actress, Ruth Kadiri Begs Federal Government For N5,000 Monthly

Posted by E.L.E.X on May 06 2020 under Celebrities

Nollywood actress, Ruth Kadiri has pleaded with the Nigerian government to give every citizen N5,000 as a palliative to cushion the effect of coronavirus.

Ruth said a monthly stipend will enable Nigerians to stay at home and reduce the risk of contracting the deadly virus.

Her plea came at a point when some companies embarked on sacking workers as coronavirus cases continue to rise in the country.

And despite the relaxation of lockdown in the country, there are still fears among the general public that the total lockdown order would return if the COVID-19 cases don’t reduce.

Read Ruth’s statement below:-

This is a message for the federal government,

“Your Excellency, too much respect from my end.
Coronavirus is a pandemic that we all never expected, but it’s here. And I pray that this message gets to you somehow.
Coronavirus and poverty are best friends. The virus lures you out through poverty, infects you and kills your family.
The thing is, it’s not something we can see or touch, it means that you have no idea who is infected. It means that when you are infected, you have no idea whether your immune system will be strong enough to fight it.
I beg you, we know Nigeria is able. You all brought up the policy of BVN, we all have all our BVN, I have more than five accounts but they all operate on that one BVN.
Please even if it is N5000 monthly, put it in our accounts, I promise you we will stay at home. Even if it is N5000.
People are not working anymore to be rich, at this point, people are working to survive. And you’ll be amazed what N5000 can do in the life of somebody and then family members.
I don’t want you to be selfish to say
“We are giving one family member N5000. No!!! We all have our account numbers, we are all Nigerians. If you are able to do this thing for us in this time, this era, you have no idea how much we are going to appreciate you,
How much we are going to sing your praises, how much we are going to tell the world that you are the best government that Nigeria has ever had.
Because the truth of the matter is that we have never fought a war like this. The army, the police, the doctors, the lawyers, the teachers, every single person needs that N5000 now.
I promise you, you have no idea. People will stay home.
People will stay home when you tell them to stay home, if they know that at the end of the month they will get N5000. They will manage it, we will manage it, I will manage it.
I promise you, I beg you, don’t say you are giving the poor, No!! At this point, every single person needs, because nobody is working anymore, sources of income have closed.
Other countries are taking care of their own, please take care of us.
Look into our BVN numbers, put N5000 there monthly for each and every person. When you tell us Nigeria is on lockdown, we will sit at home.
Thank you
