The Kano State Government has ordered the closure of land borders and routes linking the state to other parts of the country with effect from March 27 to contain the spread of Coronavirus Disease.
Abba Anwar, Chief Press Secretary to Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, made the disclosure in a statement on Wednesday in Kano.
Anwar said movements coming in and out of the state were banned ‎beginning from 12am on Friday.
He said: “This includes all kinds of movements through the borders of the state, even those coming to Kano through Domestic Wing of Malam Aminu Kano International Airport will remain at the airport, without getting access into the city.‎
“This decision is hard but absolutely necessary, as part of precautionary measures against the spread of COVID-19 pandemic.
“We urge Kano citizens and all other Nigerians to bear with this difficult situation.”
According to Anwar, land boarders will be shut, while the government will ensure close monitoring of the situation to keep the people abreast of development.
Anwar said the police, members of the Kano Road Transport Authority, Hisbah and other security agencies were mobilised to enforce compliance with the border closure.
The governor’s aide reiterated government’s commitment to adopt proactive measures to safeguard public health and protect the people against the virus.
He said: “People must cooperate with health workers to ensure that our state is safe and the country, adhere to social distancing and stay at home as advised by health workers.‎
“People should maintain a high personal hygiene, practice regular hand washing with soap under running water and ensure application of sanitisers.”
The statement further urged people to stay away from going to markets unless for essential needs and cooperate with security agencies.
