The Speaker of the House, Femi Gbajabiamila, has ordered that anyone who provides forged COVID-19 certifications be arrested and prosecuted.

His remarks came after Dr. Ifedayo Adetifa, Director-General of the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), announced that some of those involved in the illegal activity had been apprehended and turned over to the Department of State Security (DSS).

Dr. Adetifa went on to say that some corrupt individuals allegedly worked with airport officials to commit the crime.

This prompted the speaker to propose legislation to establish a government agency similar to the TSA to monitor airport operators in Nigeria.

“It’s not going to be one of those sessions where there will be no outcomes, I think one of the outcomes will be a law that specifically sets up an agency of government to oversee the operations of the airports like the TSA.

“I think the TSA appears to be the silver bullet that cures most of the things we heard here and the chairmen of the relevant committees in the House, led by the Aviation Committee, hopefully, will begin to put this together. Hopefully, within the next two week, we will have a draft of the bill,” he said.
