FCT Minister, Muhammad Bello, has said that singer, Naira Marley, and others who were part of the concert held over the weekend at Jabi Lake Mall in Abuja would be prosecuted over their breach of lockdown order.
A statement on Tuesday by the minister’s spokesman, Anthony Ogunleye, said the FCT Administration “views the actions of the organisers and attendees at this concert as reckless, wicked, insensitive and utter disrespect and disregard both for the law and the wellbeing and welfare of fellow Nigerian citizens.

He also said that the “FCT Administration which has a responsibility to protect the lives of the citizenry is determined to prosecute all those involved in orchestrating these infractions to the full extent of the law”.
The FCT minister also noted that there is a real possibility that a carrier of coronavirus at that event could have infected several others, thereby leading to a possible exponential virus spread.
