Coronavirus: Lagos Government Seals Two Event Centres For Hosting Large Gatherings (PHOTOS)
Officials of the Lagos Environmental Protection Agency LASEPA, today sealed off the venue of a surprise party in the state.
The agency got wind that over 500 persons were expected at the party and acted swiftly.
Recall
that in a bid to curtail the spread of Coronavirus in the state,
Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, in a recent media chat, announced the ban
on public gathering of more than 50 persons in the state, However, in a
publication released by the state Ministry of Information and Strategy,
the state government said the approved number for social gatherings has
been reduced to 20 persons.
As
guests at the party would be more than the approved figure by the
government, LASEPA officials moved into the venue and sealed it off.
In
a related development, the LASEPA officials also sealed off Regency and
Imperial hall for failing to comply to the initial ban on social
gathering above 50 persons in the state.
