It also advised federal government employees travelling with their families and friends for non-essential reasons to shun the practice, adding that such persons ought to set an example of compliance with regulations, including the nationwide prohibition of interstate travel imposed by President Muhammadu Buhari.
The statement further reminded residents that it is a violation of the law and infectious diseases regulations for anyone to seek to evade testing or treatment.
