COVID-19: Nigerians React To Alleged Attack On Taskforce By Muslim Worshippers by lexzygee(m): 3:08pm On Apr 02, 2020
Many Nigerians on social media are lambasting the worshippers at the Agege Central Mosque for allegedly attacking the Lagos State's COVID-19 Taskforce mandated by the government to monitor and enforce compliance against public gatherings exceeding 25 people.

Allnews reports that speaking on the incident, the General Manager, Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA) and leader of the Taskforce, Dr. Dolapo Fasawe condemned the attack and described it as barbaric and uncalled for, saying “our people are out to protect the residents of the State and yet were attacked for doing their jobs”.

She stated that the State Government will not hesitate to sanction violators to serve as a deterrent to others, adding that it was obvious the gathering did not comply with the directive of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on public gathering and social distancing.

According to her, Taskforce team COVID-19, comprising of Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency (LASEPA), Lagos Safety Commission and the Rapid Response Squad, saw the Muslim faithful observing their evening prayer (Solatul Ishai) in a large congregation, contrary to the directive on total lockdown to stem the tide of the COVID-19 pandemic in the State.
