24th April Covid-19 Update, Nigeria, Lagos, Worldwide
Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu

Despite the rising numbers of confirmed cases, we are happy to celebrate our wins and success stories because they not only show that a positive covid-19 case isn’t necessarily a case of doom and gloom, they also remind us that the war is ours to win.

Today, 10 more covid-19 patients, 3 females and 7 males, including 3 foreign nationals: 2 Indians and 1 Filipino have been discharged from our isolation facilities to go home to their loved ones.

We are encouraged by these discharged cases and the support we have received so far from citizens of the state in the battle against coronavirus, but I urge us all not to relent because it is imperative that we win.

“And please remember to:

  • Report suspected cases to the appropriate authorities
  • Observe high level of personal hygiene
  • Avoid stigmatisation 
  • Maintain social distancing
  • Mask up
  • Stay home
  • Stay safe”
