The Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 has frowned over the concert Nigerian Singer, Naira Marley held on Saturday in Abuja, despite the ban on large gatherings amid the Coronavirus pandemic.

Naira Marley, held a packed concert at the Jabi Lake Mall on Saturday in violation of the PTF directive set up to curb the spread of COVID19.

The National Coordinator of the PTF, Dr. Sani Aliyu, addressed the development on Monday during the daily COVID-19 briefing.

He said: “With regards to the fate of Naira Marley, I believe the FCT authorities have already taken action with regards to the chief organizers.

“But the decision on whether or not he will face penalties etc is actually a decision of the FCT authorities.

“The PTF will always support any measure taken against people who continue to violate the guidelines we have put in place, particularly if they are putting public health at risk.”
