Reacting to the order, the former lawmaker from Kaduna described it as a needless one. He also expressed that linking 5G to any health concern lacks scientific basis.

The 5G Stoppage Order by the Senate is needless.The nation’s political elites are simply drawn into the global technological chess game between giant tech companies backed by their Governments.Linking 5G to health concerns is Political & economics But lacks any scientific basis.
