Shouts of hallelujah and Allah Akbar will resonate across Lagos as the state government announced its approval for the reopening of full services in churches and mosques.

The announcement was made by the Lagos State governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, at a press briefing today in Lagos.

According to a monitored media report, the government said mosques could hold their prayers five times daily, while churches could 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.

Sanwo-Olu, however, warned that all safety protocols that had been announced by the government must be strictly adhered to.
