COVID-19: Unvaccinated Workers, Visitors Denied Access Into Abuja Secretariat

Access to the Area 11 Garki Secretariat in the Federal Capital Territory was denied to unvaccinated civil servants and visitors (FCT).

According to Naija News, authorities of the FCT Administration began enforcing the Federal Government’s policy of ‘no vaccine, no admission’ into any of its establishments at 7 a.m.

Senior Special Assistant on Monitoring, Inspection, and Enforcement to the FCT Minister, Ikharo Attah, told reporters on Monday that the enforcement would be maintained to achieve maximum compliance.

He stated that there would be no going back on the directive’s enforcement and that pictures of vaccination cards on phones and photocopies would not be allowed.

Attah said that an enforcement team had been deployed at the premises of FCTA and secretariats and departments to monitor compliance.

He said: “We will be following up seriously on this and we have also warned people not to snap their card on the phone as we want to see the original card, don’t show us vaccination card on phone.

“We will be asking for identity cards and we would match the cards with your COVID-19 vaccination card so that you don’t bring someone else’s card as your own.”
