Wike Issues New Directive On Schools, Churches, Warns Banks, Others

The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, on Monday, issued new directives to reopen schools, churches, and motor parks in the State as coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to spread across the country.

The governor, in a series of tweets on his official Twitter page, also warned that his government would not hesitate to prosecute owners of banks, shopping malls, restaurants, shops, and businesses that fail to enforce the wearing of face masks and social distancing in their premises.

According to him, all public and private schools, including places of worship and motor parks, will be decontaminated.

Meanwhile, the number of COVID-19 cases in Nigeria as of today is 10162, according to the NCDC.
