The government has, however, intensified contact tracing to check the spread of the disease.

Nigerians, in the meantime, have been advised to obey the lockdown directive issued by the government especially in Lagos, Abuja and Ogun.

The Minister of State for Health, Olorunnimbe Mamora, has reminded health facilities officials that Coronavirus is an extremely dangerous pathogen, which spreads very easily.

He warned that it is not advisable to accept patients with coronavirus symptoms for treatment at their hospitals, stressing that such patients should be referred to the relevant treatment centres.

This is coming on the heels of the arrival of 15 Chinese doctors in Nigeria to share their experience after making progress in the fight against COVID-19 in their country. They were also reported to have brought some medical equipment to assist Nigeria in the battle against the disease.
