The Lagos State Government says it may commence enforcement of wearing of face mask in public places from next week.
Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu made this known on Monday while giving an update on the COVID-19 at the State House, Marina.

Sanwo-Olu said that one million locally-made face masks had been contracted to tailors and would be distributed during the week.

He urged residents not to discriminate against those who had been treated and discharged as they were free to relate with their families and the community.

The governor, who said the state had recorded 14 deaths, maintained there was no need for residents to panic.

Sanwo-Olu also urged the people to strengthen their resolve to continue to obey all the directives bordering on physical distancing, respiratory hygiene and staying at home.

He called on those feeling the symptoms of the virus to present themselves for test as two more isolation centres at Landmark Centre and Gbagada would be opened on Tuesday.

”We have seen an increase in infected people from our neighbouring countries.
