The lockdown order on Ogun State, according to the President was due to its close proximity to Lagos.

He said: “For markets, only shops and stalls selling food and groceries shall be allowed to open to customers between the hours of 10:00a.m and 2:00p.m.

“For supermarkets and food stores, their opening hours must be between 10:00a.m and 4:00p.m and all owners and managers must 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 5:00a.m and 9:00a.m.”

Sani 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.

The COVID-19 Task Force Coordinator urged shop owners to ensure that all shelves, aisles and stores were cleaned and disinfected upon closure at 4:00p.m, while by 6:00p.m staff must vacate the shops.
