The Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM) has urged Nigerians staying in China to remain indoors after the outbreak of coronavirus which has killed 132 people and infected 3,554 people already.
Mrs. Abike Dabiri-Erewa, Chairman/CEO of the commission revealed this today in a statement issued by Mr. Abdur-Rahman Balogun, Head of Media and Public Relations Unit of the commission.
According to her, Nigerians staying in the country need to escape the virus by all means by accepting every available safety precaution as the Chinese health ministry advised.
She added that they should not be bothered about running out of household items because the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will take care of it.
Her words, “It is important to advise Nigerians in China to be careful and to take necessary precautions by staying indoors more for now,”
“While some are worried that they may run out of goods and other household stuff as a result of movement restrictions, I want to assure you that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is monitoring the situation.”
