Meanwhile, a Nigerian man in the United Kingdom has cautioned fellow countrymen against criticising President Muhammadu Buhari over lockdown extension, saying the president means well for them.
The man identified as Samuel N on Twitter said he has tested positive for COVID-19, and that he has not eaten for the past 13 days due to the deadly disease.
He said his main concern is to survive the virus, suggesting that people should focus on keeping safe instead of complaining of lockdown.
The Nigerian man said he has been under the care of the National Health Service in the United Kingdom since he tested positive for the disease.
He tweeted: "We are at war fighting an invisible enemy, everyone needs to join hands together to defeat the common enemy.
"Please follow all government and NCDC advice and guidelines.
"Hunger that has hope can never kill you. Always maintain social distancing, wash your hands and sanitise."

Legit.ng previously reported that Prophet TB Joshua of the Synagogue Church of All Nations told Christians that they are not immune to the deadly COVID-19.
The man of God stated this in a question and answer session on Emmanuel TV on YouTube, in which he said whatever the situation a believer finds himself, it is for his obedience to God.
He said: "Christians, do not make the mistake of thinking that you are ‘out of touch’. God often uses 'anything' to preserve us and to strengthen our desires and determination for God. Whatever your situation as a believer, it is all for your obedience to God (Hebrews 5:8)."
