The federal government of Nigeria has announced the lifting of interstate movements

The Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, Boss Mustapha, disclosed these at the ongoing daily briefing of the task force in Abuja on Monday.

Mustapha, who is also the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, also said the government has approved the safe resumption of domestic flights in the country.

He said the reopening of schools was meant to allow students in graduating classes resume preparation for examinations.
