Following the ease of the lockdown in Lagos and Ogun States as well as the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja, President Muhammadu Buhari has announced new measures.
Buhari, in a nationwide broadcast Monday night, announced that he had approved a phased and gradual easing of lockdown measures from May 4
“The highlights of the new nationwide measures are as follows; Selected businesses and offices can open from 9am to 6pm; There will be an overnight curfew from 8pm to 6am.
“This means all movements will be prohibited during this period except essential services; There will be a ban on non-essential inter-state passenger travel until further notice; Partial and controlled interstate movement of goods and services will be allowed for the movement of goods and services from producers to consumers.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the lockdown in the FCT, Lagos & Ogun States shall remain in place until these new ones come into effect on May 4, 2020”.
