Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has directed tertiary institutions in the state to reopen with effect from Monday, September 14.
The governor gave this directive during a regular briefing on the state’s COVID-19 status on Saturday, August 29.
During his address, the governor announced that primary and secondary schools are also tentatively scheduled to re-open from September 21.
He explained that the decision to re-open schools in the state was based on the fact that the number of new cases continues to steadily decline.
“This decision is not cast in stone and is subject to review of our ongoing modelling and what procedure comes out from the Ministry of Health,” he said.
He further reiterated that restaurants can now open for in-dining services in the state. However, they must ensure that spaces are only filled up to 50 percent capacity at all times.
He also said that there will be a review in September to decide whether to allow a re-opening of event centres, bars, night clubs, beaches, cinemas, and other public spaces.
