In the last two weeks Nigeria has been logging extremely low COVID-19 figures.

Between 13 September and 19 September, Nigeria reported just 968 new cases overall.

A week before, the number of confirmed cases was 1,272.

The falling figures account for why the country has been easing up the COVID-19 measures.

Schools are re-opening this week and worship centres have been authorised to operate in full.
