Speaking at the daily briefing of the taskforce in Abuja, Mustapha also introduced phase one of the eased lockdown.
He said: “Easing the total lockdown of Kano State and introduction of Phase One of the eased lockdown.
“This is still a fight for life and our advancement to phase two does not mean that COVID-19 has ended. It is still potent and highly wasteful of human lives.
