“We urge you to take the necessary precautionary steps advised by the Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) in staying safe, as we fight COVID-19 together” the statement added.
Recall that Nigeria in the last one week has confirmed about 30 cases of the novel coronavirus which has prompted authorities at the Federal and State level to take several measures to curb the spread of the virus.
Such measures include travel ban, closure of schools and international airports, suspension of events, as well as restrictions on large gatherings, irrespective of its nature.
