| Abstract: | In this paper, we used data released by Nigeria Center for Disease Control (NCDC) every 24 hours for the past consecutive two months to forecast the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases for the months (September – October 2020). The linear regression forecasting model and R software package are used for the forecast and simulations respectively. The COVID-19 cases in Nigeria is on a decreasing trend and the forecast result show that in the next two months, there is going to be a decrease in new COVID-19 cases in Nigeria. COVID-19 in Nigeria can be drastically reduced if the organizations, management, government or policymakers are constantly proactive concerning these research findings. |
