Lockdown Ease: Just In!!! Enugu Lifts Ban On Worship Centres by EBMedia(op): 11:42am On May 08, 2020
IgbereTV reports that worship centres in Enugu state is set to re-open on May 10, after the Enugu government lifted the ban placed on worship occasioned by the coronavirus pandemic.

According to IgbereTV reports, the Christian Council of Nigeria said that this was part of the agreements reached with the state government on Thursday.

A statement issued in Enugu by Most. Rev. Christopher Ede, the state Chairman of CCN, and Archbishop of Enugu Methodist Church Nigeria, said that church worship services would resume in all churches across the state on that day.

Ede said: “All member-churches of the CCN, Enugu State, are hereby notified that we have reached an agreement with the governor on the resumption of public worships, with effect from May 10.”

However, Ede said that each denomination must observe all the safety protocols on public gatherings, as recommended by the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) and other government guidelines.

IgbereTV recalls that the state government had, on March 31, suspended all religious and social gatherings, after announcing a partial lockdown, occasioned by the coronavirus pandemic.

On May 4, the state government announced a gradual and partial ease of the lockdown, which permitted certain categories of traders to reopen their shops, but excluded churches and other places of worship.
