The Federal Government has advised those above the age of 55 to stay away from congregational worships.

This was contained in the guidelines released by the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 for religious centres to resume activities.

“To this end, the guidelines have been developed as a minimum set of standards that have to be complied with for places of worship to safely operate nationwide. “Volunteers should be limited to exact numbers needed and none of the volunteers should have underlying medical conditions or be above the age of 55 years.“Those with underlying conditions or above 55 are strongly advised to stay at home and explore virtual participation.

They want shenk them baba ejo and elders

If the pastor is over 55 years what happens?

The virus hardly attacks young people yet schools are closed. Stupid people whenever you are done playing on us just let us know.

For now don't open churches, mosques, clubs & other gatherings at all. These are non essential services!! We don't have enough COVID19 facilities to contain the surge. Avoid more deaths.

Rubbish advise. They have no sense

Do you know that God used the voice of President Trump to open Churches and others in America? Who is behind the statement of this adviser is very clear. These guys need to have and exercise d fear of God fa

But they can go to work, market and banks, right? COVID-19 doesn't spread in the banks, market places and working places. It is only in the religious places right? Abeg use your common number 6 na, abeg...🙏🙏

Sorry, I don't think these people reason before they talk. They just open mouth and world comes out from there mouth OLD FOOLS

So in essence Pastors and elders shouldn't attend church service 😂😂

Good advice...this virus hardly attacks children, teenagers and youths...it attacks the elderly more...

On the average, pastors are over 50

Another nonsense talk
