The commissioner warned that the easing of lockdown was not easing of physical distancing.

He reminded residents of the curfew in place in the state saying they must be at home between 8p.m and 6 a.m.

He warned that it was a punishable offence to be out during the curfew.

Abayomi advised residents to continue to maintain hand hygiene, physical distancing and clean environment, to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
