It is for a fact that the recent decisions by some state government to rescind planned relaxation of restrictions may be justified as Nigeria, for the umpteenth time, recorded 661 new cases of coronavirus in the country.
This was revealed by the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, NCDC, on Saturday night via a tweet on its Twitter handle.
In the report, 661 new cases were confirmed, with Lagos again, leading with 230, followed closely by Rivers with 127 new cases.
The total number coronavirus cases in Nigeria stands at 19,808, with 6,718 discharged and 506 deaths recorded in total.
The tweet reads: “661 new cases of #COVID19Nigeria; Lagos-230 Rivers-127 Delta-83 FCT-60 Oyo-51 Edo-31 Bayelsa-27 Kaduna-25 Plateau-13 Ondo-6 Nasarawa-3 Ekiti-2 Kano-2 Borno-1 19,808 confirmed 6,718 discharged 506 deaths.”
