The residents of Oghara, Warri, and Ughelli are putting pressure for a second lockdown.

They said it might be the only option to reduce Covid-19, as confirmed cases rose from 317 to 1202 in just two weeks in Delta State, with 25 deaths.

They described the situation as frightening and want fellow Deltans to adhere to the guidelines issued by the Federal Ministry of Health to stay safe from the disease.

Delta State was among the few states that took early and proactive steps toward battling the Coronavirus pandemic to forestall it from spreading to the state.
