irst case of Coronavirus in Nigeria was recently confirmed in Lagos
but this is not a reason to panic, the patient is under care and watch in isolation and all the likely contacts are being traced and watched.  Panic and worries won't help us stay safe and unaffected, there are certain precautions we can all take that can reduce our chances of getting infected which are;

Wash your hands with soap and water.
Maintain a distance of about 2 meters from anyone coughing or sneezing.
People with cough or sneezing should stay at home or avoid crowds.
Stay hydrated.
Reduce how often you touch your face, eyes, nose and mouth with your hands.
Get a hand sanitizer 
We will also advise that everyone bewares of unverified WhatsApp BCs advising you to drink something, bath in something or use something unusual. Those kind of messages are potentially harmful and helpless against the infection. Follow the advisory given by @Fmohnigeria and @NCDCgov and Wellvis
