The Ministry also disclosed that the State has recorded four more deaths from Coronavirus.

It tweeted that;

With the new discharged cases, there is now a total of 247 recoveries in Lagos as at Saturday.

Meanwhile, Lagos State Ministry of Education has debunked a social media report alleging that a decision had been purportedly reached regarding a new set of guidelines for schools resumption in the State.

A release issued today by Kayode Abayomi, Head of the Public Affairs Unit in the Ministry, refuted the claim that such a decision has been reached.

He insisted that the write-up did not emanate from the State Ministry of Education and should be disregarded.

Abayomi stated that the issue of new guidelines for post-COVID-19 lockdown resumption is already under review by the State Government and will be circulated after its conclusion.

He reiterated that the State Government, through the State Ministry of Education, will still continue to offer free educational services for school children via various media platforms, especially radio and television.
