In a bid to curtail the spread of the Coronavirus, the Federal Government workers on Grade Level (GL) 12 and below have been directed to stay at home for a period of five weeks.
The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation (HoCS), Dr. Folasade Yemi-Esan, made this directive known in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja.
She asked the workers not to come to work from Wednesday, following the approval of recommendations of the Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVID-19 by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Yemi-Esan pointed out that it has become necessary to streamline the number of workers who go to work daily in the wake of the second wave of the virus.
She, however, stated that the workers who have been directed to stay away from the office were expected to perform their duties from home.
She urged workers from Level 13, who will be going to work to adhere to the preventive measures put in place.
