The Federal Government has asked Nigerians to disregard the news of a fresh lockdown circulating on social media.
As reported by Osun Defender, the Federal Government yesterday re-introduced a nationwide 12 am to 4 am curfew as part of efforts to curtail further spread of COVID-19, given the third wave currently been witnessed in some parts of the world.
This prompted #lockdown to trend on Twitter yesterday, with some Nigerians claiming the FG will soon announce a new lockdown measure.
However, the FG through the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, urged Nigerians to disregard the news.
According to Mohammed, Nigerians should disregard any news of a new lockdown by the Federal Government to control the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic. He said the news has been reported out of context.
