As Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory (FCT) gradually eases the month-long COVID-19 lockdown, the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has urged owners of construction sites to provide facilities for hand washing for workers and visitors with alcohol-based hand sanitizers to curb the spread of COVID-19.

The administration said the directive includes all public institutions’ construction sites.

This was contained in a statement signed by the Director, Department of Development Control with the FCT, TPL Mukhtar Galadima, and made available to journalists in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.

The statement also explained that all workers on construction sites must observe social/physical distancing of not less than 2 metres, including other relevant safety measures.

It went further to say that workers and visitors to construction sites are required to compulsorily wash and sanitize their hands before entering and leaving the sites.

“Construction sites of a single structure (Residential Building) shall not have more than 8 workers.

“Construction sites of a single structure (Commercial Building) shall not have more than 15 workers.

“Construction sites of multiple structures (Major Commercial/ Residential Estate) shall not have more than 35 workers or as may be determined by the Council,” the statement read.

It then urged concerned entities to be guided and ensure full compliance to the Guidelines in order to avoid the relevant sanctions, which include sealing of sites and possible prosecution.

It also encouraged the general public to report any contravention of the provision(s) of these Guidelines by any construction site(s) to the Department of Development Control for prompt action.
