COVID-19: Lagos Government To Review Curfew

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has said he will meet with the Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVID-19 next week, to review the 10pm to 4am curfew.

The curfew was imposed to restrict movement across the country, in a bid to contain the spread of Coronavirus.

However, Sanwo-Olu speaking at a media briefing at the State House today, said he speak with the PTF in the coming days about it, but noted it was a national regulation.

“The 10pm (to 4am) curfew is still on. It is a national regulation and it was issued by the PTF (Presidential Task Force on Covid-19). We will be having a discussion with the PTF during the week and if we have additional information, we will be passing across.
