Following the rising cases of COVID-19 in the country, the Federal Government has disclosed that religious gatherings will be reduced to 50 percent capacity.
Chairman, Presidential Steering Committee on COVID-19, Boss Mustapha, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday in Abuja.
The Secretary to the Government of the Federation directed that the restriction must be adhered to with full compliance to public health measures.
He stated that there has been reduced compliance to public health social measures which has led to increased COVID-19 cases in the country.
Mustapha, however, added that it may be forced to introduce more restrictions should there be an increase in cases.
