By Farouk Mohammed

President Muhammadu Buhari will today, Monday, April 13, 2020 address the nation at 7pm, the Nigerian presidency announced.

According to the presidency, “Television, radio and other electronic media outlets are enjoined to hook up to the network services of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) and Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN) respectively for the broadcast.”

It can be recalled that the president in his broadcast a week ago imposed a lockdown on Lagos, Abuja and Ogun State.

The lockdown is expected to expire at the end of today, Monday, might be extended due to new COVID-19 cases recorded in several states.

The NCDC had so far confirmed cases in 19 States including the Federal capital territory (Abuja).
