LAGOS, Nigeria—Nigeria began easing restrictions on May 4 in its capital Abuja and largest city Lagos, heralding the reopening of Africa’s biggest economy after more than four weeks of lockdowns imposed to contain the CCP virus.
The government has said a 24-hour, stay-at-home order in place since March 30 in Abuja and the states of Lagos and Ogun—with exceptions only for food shopping and health-related trips—will be lifted gradually over a six-week period.
