President Muhammadu Buhari on Saturday showed Nigerians how to maintain social distancing in the season of coronavirus pandemic.

It was at a meeting in Aso Villa with Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire.

Ehanire came to give President Buhari an update on the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

At the meeting, Buhari, Ehanire and other dignitaries sat far apart.

This was in strict observance of the principle of social distancing prescribed by the World Health Organisation (WHO).

WHO recommends at least 1 metre (3 feet) distance between oneself and anyone who may have coronavirus symptoms, such as coughing or sneezing.
