Covid-19: This is just the beginning in Nigeria – NCDC says


The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control, NCDC has said that the country might just be starting to experience coronavirus.


Dr Chikwe Ihekweazu, the NCDC Director-General, stated this while speaking at the House of Representatives on Monday, when members of the Presidential Task Force (PTF) appeared before a joint committee of the House.


His words, “We are still in the middle of a very, very bad outbreak. In fact, it is most likely that we are at the beginning of a very bad outbreak. This is the honest truth.


“And as we dig into the details of what we have done, I really crave your indulgence to please, bear in mind that we do this work together, because we really have a collective responsibility to our people,” the NCDC boss said.
