The
Federal Government has announced that all markets in states where a lockdown
was imposed (Lagos, FCT and Ogun) will be allowed to open between 10:00 am and
2:00 pm daily.
The National
Co-ordinator of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, Aliyu Sani, said this
on Wednesday during a briefing by members of the task force.
“For markets,
only shops and stalls selling food and groceries shall be allowed to open to
customers between the hours of 10:00 am and 2:00 pm,” he said.
Meanwhile, for
supermarkets and food stores, their opening hours must be between 10:00 am and
4:00 pm and all owners and managers have been warned to screen staff and
customers before entry.
“On arrival, all
staff must be screened for a high temperature and all those found to have a high
body temperature above 38, will be denied entry and advised to seek immediate
medical attention.
“All
deliveries for supplies and products for these supermarkets must be made
between the hours of 5:00 am and 9:00 am,” Sani added.
He further stated that at any point in time, the total number of customers
inside each store must not exceed a third of the store’s total capacity.
After
their closure at 4:00 pm, Sani urged shop owners to ensure that all shelves,
aisles and stores are cleaned and disinfected and by 6:00 pm, staff are
conveyed back to their respective homes.
