Coronavirus: CAN reacts to ban on Worship centers

The Lagos State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, has faulted the call for ban on religious activities in the country, following the outbreak of Coronavirus.
Chairman of CAN in the state, Apostle Alexander Bamgbola, made the remark shortly after the House of Representatives advised that places of worships should be shut down from the outbreak of the disease in Nigeria
“The Federal Government must further secure our borders. Many nations are doing this very seriously now. We must also act now as a nation, he said.

“Our nation cannot afford to welcome or accommodate coronavirus in our land. God forbid it in Jesus name. We have not got to that point and we believe we won’t get there.

“We are watching the situation very closely to know what we must do. God has kept it away from us because we cannot contain the pandemic here. We believe we will never get to the point of having to ban all services and churches will be grounded.”
