Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State today announced that security agencies have been mandated to ensure strict compliance with ban on gatherings of more than 50 people in the state.
The measure was announced by the state government two days ago as part of efforts to combat the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.
While speaking at an ongoing media briefing in Lagos, Sanwo-Olu said though the issue is not a religious affair, but the government could not allow a repeat of the experience in some other countries where the disease was allowed to spread through large religious gatherings.
He said bars, club and other social gatherings are also affected by the ban.
The governor also revealed that the Italian, who was the index coronavirus case in Nigeria, had tested negative to the virus a second time and would be discharged soon.
