Last week, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu approved the reopening of worship centres in the Lagos state effective August 7 after over four months of closure due to lockdown occasioned by the coronavirus pandemic.

The governor had approved that Muslim faithful could start attending congregational worships in mosques from Friday while Christians could also start attending physical church services from Sunday.

Sanwo-Olu also advised worshippers to obey health protocol during services including physical distancing, use of face masks and good hygiene practice.
