According to Attah, every worship centre found contravening the COVID-19 protocol will be made to face the wrath of the law.
While saying that there is no time frame for worshipers to close, Attah noted that their concern is for the churches to follow COVID-19 protocol by wearing face mask, ensuring social distancing and washing and sanitizing their hands before entering the churches.
