This comes shortly after the third case of coronavirus, a 30-year old woman returning from the United Kingdom, was detected by the ministry of health on Tuesday.
Sequel to the discovery of the third case of coronavirus in Nigeria, the Federal Government on Tuesday placed an immediate ban on public servants from embarking on foreign trips particularly to counties with high-risk of coronavirus.
The move on travel restrictions was disclosed by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) Boss Mustapha, during the inaugural meeting of the Presidential Task Force (PTF) on the control of Coronavirus pandemic in Nigeria.
