The Federal Government will begin the application of the no-vaccination-no-work rule beginning from December 1, the Presidential Steering Committee (PSC) on COVID-19 hinted yesterday.
PSC Chairman and Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) Boss Mustapha said all Federal Government employees will be required to show prove of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test result to gain access into their offices.
Mustapha, who spoke at a briefing by the PSC in Abuja, said: “With effect from 1st of December, 2021, Federal Government employees shall be required to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination or present a negative COVID-19 PCR test result done within 72 hours, to gain access to their offices, in all locations within Nigeria and our missions abroad.
“An appropriate service-wide advisory/circular will be issued to guide the process.”
The SGF also informed that the PSC had decided, after a proper review of development within their borders, to relax the restriction imposed on travellers from Brazil, Turkey and South African.
