The Diocesan Bishop of Lagos, Church of Nigeria , Rt. Rev. Humphrey Olumakaiye, has said no virus or disease can be contracted in the church of God.

Olumakaiye noted that even when members used the same cup for Holy Communion, they could not contract any disease.

“However, in obedience to all laid down protocols of wearing nose masks, regular washing of hands, physical distancing and so on, our churches have made adequate preparations. In all of these, let the joy of the Lord be our strength, because that is what we will be spreading and not any virus,” he added.

He said the church was the hope of the common man, because “when every other thing or method fails, the church of God, where God’s holy altar is, cannot fail.”
