He affirmed Governor Kayode Fayemi’s directive that public workers on grade level 12 and below should work from home.

Omole appealed to the people to comply with all laid down protocols to protect themselves from contracting the virus.

The commissioner added that the social distancing and face mask-wearing remained mandatory across the state.
