The Federal Government on Thursday said the nationwide curfew put in place to curb the spread of the COVID – 19 disease is now from 12:00 am to 4:00 am.
The National Coordinator of the Presidential Taskforce on COVID-19, Dr Sani Aliyu, made this known during a press briefing at the Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport, Abuja.
Aliyu said, “We are modifying the curfew to commence from 12 midnight to 4:00 am nationwide, effective from 12:00 tonight.
“This does not apply to people on essential services and international travellers that might be returning from abroad.”
The PTF had on May 4, 2020, imposed a nationwide curfew from 6:00 pm to 8:00 am but, on June 1, 2020, the timing was shifted to between 10:00 pm and 4:00 am.
