The Cross River State government on
Saturday banned religious gatherings of
more than five persons in the state.
The lockdown/banned was Enacted by the Senior Special Adviser to the Governor on Religious Matters, Rev. Fr. Bob Etta, in Calabar.
This order came from Gov. Ben Ayade and the resolution of the state chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN). Etta said “religious leaders should show commitment to the safety and well being of their followers, adding that this should be demonstrated on Sunday, March 29.”
“The Church is not the physical building but the people. Though, our doors will be closed our hearts are with God.”
Families are encouraged to hold their devotions at home.
“As a people of Faith, let us storm the
heavens with our Prayers and may God Hear us,” Amen.
A task force will be going round the
state to monitor compliance as any Church caught in worship will be sealed,” he said.
It would be recalled that Cross River is yet to record any case of coronavirus disease,but was taking measures to forestall it.
