But churches and mosques in Lagos State will not reopen due to a disagreement between the state government and religious leaders over protocols and guidelines. Elegushi said: “Even before the pronouncement by the Federal Government, we have been having meetings with the religious leaders. I want to tell you categorically that at that meeting, the possibility of reopening religious houses was ruled out totally. This was as the Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVID-19 yesterday reeled out more guidelines to worship centres when they reopen. Worship centres should have different entry and exit points.
