He said the attention of the government had been drawn to news reports that Lagos was on lockdown.

This followed Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s update on the steps taken to curtail the spread of coronavirus.

According to Omotoso, the impression created by such reports was erroneous.

He said the state was not on lockdown, in spite of the stringent measures introduced by the government.

Going further, he disclosed that the governor only urged the private sector establishments to introduce measures that would support the government’s efforts at curtailing the spread of COVID-19.

Legit.ng also reported that Nigeria's seat of power Aso Rock is on partial lockdown according to Femi Adesina, special adviser to the president on media and publicity.

The presidential spokesman disclosed this during an interactive session with state house correspondents on Wednesday, March 25.
