NIWA also urged all Nigerians to obey government directives on Covid -19, as the only way to restore sanity and ensure safety and well-being of everybody in the country.

Fadile said that the body has also reduced activities on the Nigerian waterways to curtail the spread of the ravaging COVID-19, even as handwashing and use of sanitiser at every NIWA office, particularly Lagos has now been entrenched.
