Nigerians show courage over new coronavirus in Lagos

Nigerians have called for a joint effort in the fight against the novel coronavirus (Covid-19) which originated in Wuhan, China.

A first case of the virus in Nigeria was reported early Friday by health officials.

An Italian arrived in Lagos on Tuesday from Milan carrying the virus unnoticed. He has now been quarantined and monitored.

Nigerians on Twitter have shown courage to defeat the deadly virus like the Ebola virus some years back.
