According to report reaching oyogist.com, the Nigerian federal government have allegedly accused the religious leaders of sabotaging their efforts in the fight against Covid-19.
This was made known by the SGF and Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, Boss Mustapha, during a PTF Press Conference on Thursday in Abuja.
According to a statement issued by Boss Mustapha, he said; “We have observed, rather sadly, that Nigerians, particularly some faith-based organisations have continued to hold events of large gatherings capable of spreading the virus.”
“The PTF urges all sub-national entities that signed the protocols with these organisations and have primary responsibility for enforcing the protocols and NPIs to step up their roles of enforcement.”
He noted that the PTF was already working with the relevant stakeholders in curbing the Covid-19 pandemic in the country ahead of it final report submission to the President.
