Nigeria's Coronavirus strategy: 'Priority is testing"
Information Minister Lai Mohammed says Nigeria shouldn't necessarily copy what other countries are doing to stop the spread of COVID19. He says Nigeria is following a strategy 'tailored' on what's happening on the ground. Speaking to Focus on Africa's Bola Mosuro, he answers questions on the country's preparedness during the spread of the virus and the availability of personal protective equipment (PPE) available to the health personnel fighting against the pandemic.
