As one of the Ministers entrusted with the welfare of Nigerian workers, I politely urge @DStvNg & @StarTimes_Ng to extend all EXISTING subscriptions by at least one month, free-of-charge, as their own contribution to ease the pains of Nigerian workers at this time of lockdown— Festus Keyamo, SAN (@fkeyamo) March 30, 2020
Mr Keyamo had in some earlier tweets on March 26, opined that God allowed the Coronavirus (COVID-19) disease to afflict the human race.
He argued that God allowed COVID-19 to afflict the human race only to redirect our steps back to Him.
According to him, “We have so distorted God’s Word to suit our own human weaknesses and satisfy our greed, even in supposed Holy Places”.
The minister urged Nigerians to collectively ask for forgiveness, stressing that it will all end in praise.
