The Jigawa State Government has directed its workers to continue to work from home for the next two weeks, with the exception of those on essential duties, including those in the Ministries of Health, Finance and Water Resources.
Dr. Abba Zakari, the state’s Chairman, Task Force on Coronavirus, announced this to newsmen in Dutse on Tuesday.
The News Agency of Nigeria recalls that the Jigawa State Government had on March 24 directed the workers to work from home for two weeks as part of measures to curb the spread of the virus in the state.
On April 7, the government extended the order by directing the workers to continue to work from home for the next two weeks till April 21.
Zakari said the workers were directed to further continue to work from home as earlier directed till May 5.
He explained that the extension was due to the confirmed case recorded in the state.
