Covid-19 Peace Ambassadors: The Essence

The paradox of Covid-19 is one that will remain with humanity for a long time to come. While frontline workers especially doctors, nurses and  other first responders are demonstrating selfless heroism against all odds, the economy of Nigeria and African countries are confronted with the biggest threat yet by Covid-19.  With the untold hardship Covid-19 presents especially to small businesses which are the engine of growth in Nigeria and Africa, the threat to peace and security within the continent is best acknowledged and addressed.

The Covid-19 Peace Ambassadors (for Africa) is predicated on the conviction that the economic virus in Africa predates the Coronavirus. Given the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on an already poverty-ridden region, the threat to peace in the land requires urgent steps  towards  ameliorating the impact on families, businesses and citizens as a whole. To this end, the Covid-19 Peace Ambassadors (for Africa) through its Peace Fund shall address these economic challenges and provide support to the healthcare workers and first responders as they represent the troops on the Covid-19 battlefront.
