writes that the reopening of places of worship in the Federal Capital Territory has thrown up many questions about the willingness of the citizens to observe all the guidelines to limit the spread of COVID-19
The NCDC guidelines also stipulated that religious centres be disinfected routinely before and after worship. The guidelines stated that “there should be no entry without face masks. All attendees and religious leaders must wear a face mask. People, who are sick, should not go to places of worship. There should be temperature screening on entry.”
At the Redeemed Christian Church of God branch, also in Kubwa, the temperature of individuals was checked at the entrance, but only a few worshippers were seen wearing face masks during the Sunday services. They subsequently removed the masks during the praise and worship session. For some Nigerians, old habits die hard. Individuals could still be seen shaking hands and hugging each other after the prayers despite the attendant risks.
The civil servant did not believe that the worship centres could sustain the decontamination of their auditoriums for long either. According to him, this omission should be addressed by the government in order to put would-be violators on notice.
