“The battle against COVID-19 is a long-term one.”

This follows President Muhammadu Buhari relaxation of the restriction on places of worship based on guidelines issued by the Presidential Task Force PTF on Covid-19 and the protocols agreed by state governments.

The Chairman of PTF and Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss Mustapha who disclosed these at the daily press briefing yesterday in Abuja said that Buhari retained the ban on the gathering of more than 20 people outside of a workplace; a managed access to markets and locations of economic activity to limit the risk of transmission; and ban on inter-state travels except for the movement of agricultural produce, petroleum products, manufactured goods and essential services providers...

He explained that the PTF took into consideration the advisory of the World Health Organisation on the need to balance lives and livelihoods; follow a slow and phased approach that is data-driven; apply public health measures in every community and at every phase of the response ; and evaluating the economic and social aspects of the society, which will play a role in progressing or hindering any efforts for the response when planning to ease a lockdown.

Mustapha said that based on the overall assessment, including available data on the public health considerations and resultant economic impacts, the PTF was of the opinion that Nigeria was ready to allow science and data determine her cautious advancement into the second phase of the eased lockdown for a period of four weeks.

He said that the nationwide curfew would remain in place but would last from 10:00 p.m.-4:00 a.m. effective from today, while people on essential services, including the media, were exempted.
