The Federal Government has said it will be left with no option than to impose a fresh
lockdown in the country if the number of
CoviD-19 infections continues to spike.
The National Coordinator of the Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVIF-19, Sani Aliyu, stated this on Friday during a media briefing in Abuja.
Aliyu said the rising Coronavirus infections
was a source of concern and might require afresh lockdown.
He said, 1f these numbers continue to go up and we start having significant deaths, we will have no option. If we do not want to lockdown, now is the time to make sure that we follow the non-pharmaceutical interventions.
Also, the PTF Chairman and Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Boss
Mustapha, who spoke earlier, said, "The Presidential Task Force is very concerned
about the increasing daily numbers that we are recording.
On the 6th of January 2021, we recorded
1,664 infections. This is yet another all-time high in Nigerian and we must all take full responsibility through compliance and
vigilance.
