In line with the prevailing protocol put in place by the
Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, restricting large gatherings, President
Muhammadu Buhari has cancelled all forms of the usual Christmas homage by
religious and community leaders in the Federal Capital Territory.
The President urged all citizens to, in line with the
prescribed protocol, observe social distancing, use face masks, wash hands
frequently and avoid overcrowding of public spaces, markets, shopping centres,
offices and places of worship.
President Buhari equally appealed to citizens to discourage
all non-essential travels during the holiday season.
He wished everyone a Happy Christmas and a Prosperous New
Year ahead.
This was contained in a brief statement on Thursday signed
by Mallam Garba Shehu, the President’s Spokesman.
Nigeria is currently facing a second wave of the deadly
Coronavirus pandemic.
