Religious organizations in Rwanda have been asked to make necessary investment in Covid-19 preventive measures ahead of a possible reopening of places of worship in the next 15 days.
In the meantime investment in Covid-19 precautionary and preventive measures is encouraged to allow readiness for reopening within 15 days upon an epidemiological assessment," reads parts of the statement.
Places of worship are among several activities whose operations were halted by the Covid-19 pandemic since mid-March.
The resolution follows a recent set of guidelines pitched last week by the inter-religious council to Rwanda Governance Board (RGB), that places of worship would abide with to prevent the spread of Covid-19 in case they are given a green light to operate.
All measures adopted by the cabinet meeting are expected to be reviewed again in 15 days upon a health assessment.
