President Buhari has expressed sadness over the recent confirmation of a case of Coronavirus in Lagos.
President Buhari noted that the virus still found its way to Nigeria despite the ardent efforts of the government regarding preparedness and response measures put in place in the country’s borders and beyond.
The President also commended the responses of the Federal Ministry of Health and Governments of Lagos and Ogun States as well as other relevant agencies to the reported incident and calls for vigilance on the part of all citizens and responsible government agencies.
He urged Nigerians not to panic about the news of this first case of Covid-19 in the country, as undue alarm would do citizens more harm than good.
