Intending Couples Must Obtain Clearance To Hold Weddings – Lagos State Government.
 



Following the second wave of the Corona Virus breakdown, the Lagos State Government has made it mandatory for intending couples to obtain clearance from the state government to in order to hold weddings with 300 (or more) people in attendance.

This was disclosed in a notice by the state government on Friday, which they titled, ‘Stay At Home’.

The notice partly read, “Weddings and social gatherings must not exceed 300 people with prior clearance from the Lagos State Safety Commission”.

The Director-General of the Lagos State Safety Commission, Lanre Mojola, said the state government is concerned about large gatherings and big weddings as the state experiences a spike in the number of Covid-19 cases.

“If it is not a big wedding, maybe 50 people, 100 people, we are not really concerned. 
But if it is a large gathering with 300 people and above, it is mandatory that you get a clearance. It is a free clearance; no payment whatsoever,” he said.

He added that the clearance is free and prospective couples will have to go on the Commission’s website to input the details of their weddings, adding that safety marshals will be deployed to such events to enforce all Covid protocols to prevent any possible spread of the virus.
