A view of the deserted central business district is pictured on the first day of a 14-day lockdown aimed at limiting the spread of coronavirus disease in Lagos, Nigeria March 31, 2020.
However, the terms of the lockdown have created confusion. While Nigeria’s president said food retailers and health facilities could remain open, he did not say whether people could leave their homes to buy necessities or seek care. People who could not afford to stockpile for the 14-day lockdown were left dependent on government relief packages.
Across the continent, other countries have introduced their own relief programmes for people, including South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana. South Africa, where a lockdown began on Friday, will be the continent’s first country to conduct large-scale screening, said President Cyril Ramaphosa, announcing the move late on Monday.
