Nigeria’s Response to Coronavirus Remarkable – UN Chief

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres praised Nigeria’s response to the country’s coronavirus pandemic.

Guterres, who spoke on Thursday in a virtual interview in New York, United States, singled out Nigeria out of other countries affected as one of the developing countries that “showed a remarkable ability to respond to the coronavirus”.

“I have to say this; some of these developing countries have shown a remarkable ability to respond.

“I was very impressed to see, for example, Nigeria implanting and immediately establishing a hospital.

“And I saw difficulties in much more developed countries to do the same quickly.” Nigeria currently has 210 cases of COVID-19 with two deaths.
