Officials of The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) sealed up Jabi Lake Mall hours after Naira Marley’s concert was held there.
Naira Marley hosted a concert in Abuja and the concert was supposed to be a drive-through concert.
However, attendees of the concert threw caution to the wind and the concert turned into a full-fledged party.
Nigerians took to social media to slam Naira Marley and organizers of the show for flouting COVID 19 rules and holding a concert despite the surge of coronavirus cases in Nigeria.
The FCT has recorded the second-highest number of coronavirus cases after Lagos with 1,212 cases.
