The Federal Capital Territory Administration recently released its guidelines on the cessation of movement within its territory. The Chief Press Secretary to the Minister of FCT, Mr. Anthony Ogunleye noted that new observations have been made and new directives have been issued by the COVID19 Security Committee which is headed by Malam Muhammad Musa Bello, the Minister of FCT.
The Minister noted that this new directive is as a result of the fact that, though at the Federal Capital City, the residents have been very compliant and obedient to the orders made to curb the spread of the COVID19 pandemic, however same cannot be said about the satellite towns around the city where residents have constantly flouted the orders. To this end market operational days have been reduced to two days a week, namely Wednesdays and Saturdays, residents are required to only patronize neighborhood markets and mobile courts will now be mobilized to try offenders.
