The General Manager of Plateau United Football Club of Jos, Pius Henwan, has appealed to citizens of Plateau State to support Governor Simon Lalong’s directive to stay at home as a measure to halt the spread of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Henwan noted in a statement that adhering to the governor’s directive has become necessary in order to stop the spread of the virus.

He explained that the pandemic, which has no cure for now except precautionary measures, has killed thousands in various parts of the world.

Henwan while wishing those affected speedy recovery, appealed to citizens, especially the club’s teeming fans, to adhere to the governor’s directive to enable them celebrate with the team as they aim to win their second Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) title at the end of the season.

He disclosed that Plateau United has worked hard right from pre-season to win the league title describing the recent break as a result of the coronavirus pandemic as a temporary setback which will not affect the team chances of winning the league title.

The football administrator used the occasion to appeal to public-spirited individuals and organisations to complement government efforts in providing succor, especially to the less privileged who will be seriously affected with the lockdown.
