President Muhammad Buhari has finally spoken on coronavirus outbreak in Nigeria.
The President had earlier been criticised for not addressing Nigerians on the disease.
But shortly after the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) confirmed the 30th case of the disease in Nigeria, the president’s short address to Nigerians surfaced on Twitter.
In a 23 seconds video posted on the social media platform by Bashir Ahmad, his Personal Assistant on New Media, President Buhari said he’s working with the Ministry of Health to protect Nigerians.
