Kano State Government, on Thursday, warned that it will bring the full weight of the law to bear on any person or organisation caught breaching COVID-19 protocols.
It added that it had mandated security agents to ensure full compliance without exception.
Commissioner for Information, Malam Muhammad Garba, said this in a statement on Thursday.
Garba said the ban imposed on the activities of viewing and event centres had been extended to clubs, concerts, street parties and other large social gatherings.
He said all the restrictions had to be enforced “because the safety of our people and their welfare are priorities that cannot be toyed with.”
In the same vein, the COVID-19 Emergency Operations Centre in Nasarawa State has called on Governor Abdullahi Sule to issue an Executive Order and create mobile courts to try citizens who refuse to comply with the coronavirus preventive measures.
