An unbothered Nigerian man has said he would be attending Church service today despite a ban on religious gatherings of more than 20 persons, in order to curb the spread of Coronavirus in Lagos state.

James Johnson was reacting to a Tweet that warned people of the danger of going to church as cases of coronavirus in Nigeria are increasing by the day.

The state government had placed a ban on gatherings of more than 20 persons after 10 more cases of Coronavirus were confirmed in the country on Saturday.

This morning, three new cases were confirmed in Lagos state, bringing the total number of persons with the virus in Nigeria to 25.
