#TakeResponsibility to always wear a face mask properly in public places.

A properly worn face mask acts as a protective barrier to prevent the spread of #COVID19.

✅Cover your nose & mouth
✅No gaps
✅Secure it with straps

A face mask is a personal item & must not be shared.

The increasing number of detected #COVID19 cases in Nigeria can be attributed to non-adherence to preventive measures.

Do your part to prevent further spread of the disease.

#TakeResponsibility

Everyone must continue to adhere to all preventive guidelines to stay protected from getting infected with the #COVID19 virus.
