Lagos State governor, Jide Sanwo-Olu has asked the residents to "calm down" over celebration.


Sanwo Olu,also reacted to a viral video of a little boy’s interaction with his mother.










The little boy became an internet sensation after his mother shared a video capturing the moment he begged her to calm down while she was trying to scold him for his wrongdoing.



The governor, in his social media post, used the video to pass across a message to Lagosians as he urged them to also ‘calm down’ during this festive period.










Sanwo-Olu also said he would like to meet the boy.



Sanwo-Olu urged residents of the state to emulate a boy seen in a viral video pleading with his mother over a misdemeanor, and “calm down” even as they celebrate the 2020 Eid-el-Kabir.










Describing the exchange between the mother and son as funny, Governor Sanwo-Olu said it reflects the challenges parents go through trying to mold their children into better individuals, saying he wants to meet the boy.


“Interestingly, the video inspired this special message to the good people of Lagos State because of the deeper meaning it conveys,” the governor tweeted on his handle, Wednesday.


“Fellow Lagosians, we need to ‘calm down’ as we enjoy the coming holiday and festivity.”










Sanwo-Olu reminded Lagosians of the sacrifices by Prophet Ibrahim, called on them to emulate such and also demonstrate self-restraint especially as the world battles the COVID-19 pandemic.


“We need to be moderate in our celebration and observe prescribed protocols towards defeating the deadly coronavirus,” Sanwo-Olu restated.


“The world needs the responsibility and commitment of its people to oust coronavirus.










“I urge every Lagosian to ‘calm down’ and not get carried away. Like the rest of the world, we are still in the middle of a pandemic and need to remain extremely careful to keep the gains of the sacrifices we have all made in the past months,” Sanwo-Olu restated.


“Let’s calm down! As an aside, I would like to meet the young boy since we both now have exclusive rights to the phrasal verb ‘calm down’.”
