Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has insisted that the state cannot afford another lockdown.
Sanwo-Olu stated this in a statement released on Saturday.
This comes a day after he ordered schools to close indefinitely and civil servants to work from home, as the second wave of COVID-19 sweeps across Nigeria.

“We cannot afford another total lockdown so I enjoin us to keep observing the prescribed protocols and the required lifestyle adjustments that will help us enter 2021 stronger, healthier and safer,” part of the statement read.
