The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, has identified human resistance to change and stigmatisation as part of the challenges in containing the COVID-19 pandemic.
Mr Mustapha said this at the bi-weekly Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 briefing on Thursday while reminiscing on the achievements of the task force in the past three months.
Mr Mustapha who doubles as the chairman of the task force has repeatedly warned Nigerians of the risk involved in disobeying already established guidelines to limit the spread of the virus.
Moving forward
Mr Mustapha, however, warned that the COVID-19 virus "is still much around and real".
He said the relaxed lockdown should not be misinterpreted to mean the pandemic is over
"As you are aware, the main focus is on community engagement and risk communication while not neglecting the need to obey all the guidelines and non-pharmaceutical measures," he said.
