Osun State government has banned all public gatherings in the state under any banner or organisation.
This, in effect, means there will be no church services on Sunday.
According to the Secretary to the State Government, Prince Wole Oyebamiji, the decision was taken in reaction to the increasing number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 infected individuals, and its gradual spread to other states of the country.
The state government had initially announced a ban on public gatherings having 50 or more people, but reviewed the position following the announcement of more confirmed cases by the Federal Ministry of Health.
