COVID-19: Ex-Oyo SSG, Alli asks Makinde to shelve school, churches reopening
DAILY POST gathered that Makinde had on Monday asked final year students in schools to resume on June 29.
“Decisions reached include the resumption of classes for Primary Six, JSS3 and SS3 students from Monday, June 29; resumption of work by all category of workers at the state secretariat from June 22; opening up of mosques and churches, which are to operate at 25 per cent capacity; and the decision to limit public gathering to not more than 25 persons,” he said.
Alli said opening schools, government offices, churches and mosques at this critical time “is dangerous and an open invitation to risking the lives of the good people of the state when the number of coronavirus victims is increasing on the daily basis.”He wondered what necessitated the impatience on school reopening, especially when examination coordinating bodies are not in a hurry to commence the exercise.
“This decision is unguarded, untimely and insensitive at the time the whole world is battling to find a lasting solution to the issue of Covid-19.
