The minister of health, Osagie Ehanire, has disclosed
that President Muhammadu Buhari will determine
when it is appropriate to lift the lockdown which
was imposed in Lagos, Ogun state and Abuja to check the spread of COVID-19. Ehanire told Channels TV on Sunday, April 26, that
the COVID-19 task force will give Buhari the facts
about the pandemic which will enable the president
to take a decision on whether to lift the lockdown
or not.
The minister of health says any decision about the
lockdown has to be tailored according to the needs
of Nigerians “The President will make that announcement in his
own time. We will give him the facts, he will
consider the facts and make his own
announcements using his own wisdom,” the
minister said.
The minister of health said any decision about the
lockdown has to be tailored according to the needs
of Nigerians “What happens is that every country, you balance
the medical and the health-related benefits from the
economic-related benefits because you have an
economy you don’t want to kill and you also have
the health side that you don’t want to destroy," he
said. President Buhari had on May 29 declared lockdown
in the three states to curtail the spread of COVID-19
in the country. Two weeks after the expiration, the president
extended the lockdown on April 13 for another
two weeks.
