Security operatives bar unvaccinated civil servants from federal secretariat, Abuja

Civil servants and the general public without proof of vaccination and negative PCR tests are currently being prevented from accessing government buildings in Abuja, The PUNCH reports.

Recall that the Boss Mustapha-led presidential steering committee on COVID-19 had announced in October that civil servants without proof of vaccination and negative PCR tests would not be allowed to access government buildings from December 1, 2021.

Nigeria on Wednesday had also reported three cases of the Omicron variant of the coronavirus disease.
