On COVID-19, Buhari urged Nigerians not to push their luck too far despite the fact that Nigeria has been able to manage the virus well.
He said, “looking at the trends in the other countries, we must do all we can to avert the second wave of the pandemic. We must make sure that our cases, which have gone down, do not rise again. Our economy is too fragile to bear another round of lockdown.”
The President urged Nigerians to maintain social distancing and observe other protocols to curb the spread of the virus during the period of festivities.
