Breaking! President Buhari to address the nation

President Muhammadu Buhari to address the nation today, Monday 18th May 2020, on the update of Coronavirus and the gradual easing of the lockdown.

Aliyu Sani, National Coordinator of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 disclosed this on Sunday when he appeared as a guest on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.

He said the president would, in the broadcast, announce to Nigerians whether or not the country would go ahead with the second phase of the easing of the lockdown.

Since the gradual easing of the lockdown kicked off on 4 May, Nigeria has recorded a significant rise in cases of Coronavirus.

Nigerians, in the quest to make ends meet, did not observe social distancing, as the banks were filled to the brim, coupled with crowded bus stops at the start of the gradual easing of the lockdown.
