The Presidential Task Force on the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) has met behind closed doors with President Muhammadu Buhari to discuss the next step of the efforts to contain the pandemic.

The lockdown imposed by the president on the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Lagos and Ogun states lapsed on Sunday.

But lockdown is widely expected to be extended given the upsurge in the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases around the country.

Governors of the 36 states of the federation have also recommended a restriction to interstate movements except for some essential services.

The PTF led by its chairman and Secretary to Government of the Federation (SGF), Mr Boss Mistapha, was with the president at the presidential villa, Abuja, ostensibly to discuss what will form the next line of action by the government.
