According to the SGF, the Federal Government will be shutting down three international airports in the country with effect from Monday.
He said no international flights will be allowed into the country.
Mustapha, however, said that measures have become imperative to further halt the importation of the virus into the country.
The SGF added that as dreaded as Boko Haram insurgents are, Coronavirus is more vicious and most dreaded because one affliction can destroy an entire city.
