Senator Sani tweeted, “The truth is that once the Lockdown is lifted on Monday in Abuja, nobody will listen to ‘any grammar’ of conditions attached to it. It’s either there is lockdown or no lockdown.
“The Government is unable to feed the people and conduct enough COVID-19 test and has taken a dangerous gamble.”
During his address, President Muhammadu Buhari announced that the restriction on social and religious gathering would remain in place.
The President said that as from May 4, selected businesses will open from 8 am to 6 pm and that the current lockdown will be relaxed the same day.
