COVID-19: IMT ENUGU PRESENTS ITS SOLAR-POWERED AUTOMATED SANITIZER DISPENSER TO GOV. UGWUANYI AMID COMMENDATION

The Council, Management and Consulting Unit of the Institute of Management and Technology (IMT), Enugu, on Tuesday, presented a solar-powered automated soap, water and sanitizer dispenser developed by the institution, to Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, as its contribution to the Enugu State government’s efforts in ensuring observation of the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) protocol for containment of the spread of the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19).

Presenting the dispenser to the governor at the Government House, Enugu, the institution, led by the Chairman of the Governing Council, Deaconess Ifeoma Nwobodo and the Rector, Prof. Austin Nweze, said it has the capacity to mass produce the product if given the support.

Gov. Ugwuanyi, who commended IMT Enugu for the wonderful initiative, said this is the kind of relationship that should exist between government and institutions in the area of research.

He, therefore, assured the institution of his administration’s support and cooperation towards the success of the project.

Simple steps to prevent the spread spread of Corona Virus:

  • Clean your hands often. Use soap and water, or an alcohol-based hand rub.
  • Maintain a safe distance from anyone who is coughing or sneezing.
  • Don’t touch your eyes, nose or mouth.
  • Cover your nose and mouth with your bent elbow or a tissue when you cough or sneeze.
  • Stay home if you feel unwell.
  • If you have a fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention. Call in advance.
  • Follow the directions of your local health authority.
Avoiding unneeded visits to medical facilities allows healthcare systems to operate more effectively, therefore protecting you and others.

Enugu State is in the hands of God!##
