Lagos State Government Approves the Resumption of Full Services for Religious Centres
The Lagos State Government has announced the approval of churches and mosques to resume full services in the state. The Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu made this known during a press briefing on Saturday, September 19, 2020, in Lagos.
According to a monitored media report, the government said mosques can hold their prayers 5 times daily, while churches can also resume weekly services. This is against the initial announcement, where worship centres were restricted to just one gathering weekly, after they were allowed to reopen on August 7, 2020, following the lockdown to contain the spread of the coronavirus disease.
Governor Sanwo-Olu, however, warned that all safety protocols that had been announced by the government must be strictly adhered to.
