First Lady Aisha Muhammadu Buhari has called for a total lockdown over the coronavirus pandemic which has claimed one life in the country.
Mrs Buhari, in a post on her Facebook wall yesterday, said the decision of governors to close down schools would be counterproductive if parents are still going to work.
She advocated that everybody stay at home.
She wrote:“It is commendable that state governors have closed down schools; however, this could be counterproductive if parents are still going to work. We should not isolate students and expose their parents.
Let us remember that they will meet at home.#TotalLockDown #StayAtHome”
Last week, the first lady said one of her daughters was on self-isolation having returned from the United Kingdom (UK), one of the high burden listed countries of COVID-19.
She urged all parents to do the same if possible, saying “prevention is better than cure.”
