Bishop Oyedepo has donated Ambulances and food items to Lagos and Ogun to help in the fight against Coronavirus spread.

The Presiding Bishop of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, David Oyedepo, has donated ambulances and food items to Lagos and Ogun to assist the two states in their fight against the coronavirus.

According to a statement signed by the chairman, Editorial and Media Board, Living Faith Church Worldwide, Professor Sheriff Folarin; the donated items, which included two ambulances and test kits, will be shared between the two states.





The statement read in part :

“Living Faith Church as a faith-based organization with a global outreach wishes to register its support, in entirety; to the Nigerian government and global efforts to win the war against this unseen but common enemy of mankind.

“Among the medical/health resources are two state-of-the-art ambulances with capacity for first aid, test, and treatment of those infected; or on emergency resulting from the infection.

“Each of the ambulances will be donated to Lagos and Ogun States to boost the disease control measures and treatment.

“Other items include 20 cartons of latex hand gloves (10 boxes per carton); 10 cartons of disposable face masks (40 boxes per carton); 40 pieces of infrared thermometer (gun-shaped type); 500 pieces of personal protective device (PPE) Hazmat suit; two boxes of pulse oximeter (10 per box); and two cartons of blood pressure monitor (10 per carton).





“Also received are food items, which are meant for immediate distribution as palliatives to the less privileged who are likely to be the worst hit by the lockdown. These are 400 bags of rice, 150 bags of beans, 400 bags of garri, 500 gallons of vegetable oil, among other items.”

Oyedepo joins other high profile Nigerians that have contributed money and medical instruments to help in the fight against the coronavirus disease.

Few days ago, chairman of Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote donated four ambulances to the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control to aid the current fight against COVID-19.
