As part of the strategy to ease lockdown imposed to flatten coronavirus in Lagos state, the Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has approved Friday and Sunday worship services for Muslims and Christian faithful in the state.
Sanwo-Olu added that Muslims and Christian faith would be allowed to reopen their houses beginning from June 19th and June 21st respectively.
The governor, who announced the approval on Thursday while addressing pressmen, directed religious houses to immediately go online and register for their certification ahead of the reopening in another two weeks.
He noted that when the Churches and Mosques reopen in another 14 days, only 40 percent of their maximum capacity would be allowed to engage in any worship service and that worshippers between ages 0-15 and 65 and above would not be permitted into the premises.
