Churches and Mosques have been closed for the past two months after President Akufo-Addo announced a ban on social gatherings on Sunday, March 15, 2020, as part of measures to help reduce the spread of the Coronavirus disease.
President Akufo-Addo in his 10th address to the nation since the outbreak of the coronavirus in the country said an abridged format for religious services can commence.
“Twenty-five per cent attendance, with a maximum number of 100 congregants, can worship at a time in church or at the mosque, with a mandatory one-metre rule of social distancing between congregants.
“In addition to the mandatory wearing of masks for all persons at all times in churches and mosques, a register of names and contact details of all worshippers and hand washing facilities and sanitisers must be provided, with a maximum duration of one hour for each service,” President Akufo-Addo stated.
While some churches have welcomed the new directive, others such as the PVC have directed that their churches remain closed until further notice .
