Lagos closes two traditional birth attendant centres

An online news platform has come under criticism for misleading information regarding the imposition of fines on Churches that violate the curfew on December31, 2020. However, the Lagos state government has debunked such claims through its twitter handle. “The attention of LASG has been drawn to an online news quoting the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Gbenga Omotoso, as saying fines ranging between N20,000 and N500,000 will be imposed on violators of the curfew on Dec. 31, 2020. This is inaccurate and misleading.”

The Lagos state government has advised residents to comply with COVID-19 protocols due to the increase in the number of cases. The role of religious organisations in fighting the pandemic is well noted.

The Christian Association of Nigeria has issued a statement on how Churches should conduct their watchnight services.

Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu has maintained a harmonious relationship with religious organisations and has confidence in the ability of their leaders to ensure compliance with COVID-19 protocols amid the clamour for crossover services.
