It was gathered that those who could not provide evidence of vaccination were prevented from accessing the premises.
A senior official of the FCTA who pleaded not to be named told THE WHISTLER that those that have not been vaccinated were prevented from entering the premises and were asked to go get vaccinated.
Recall that the FCTA last week issued a warning that all unvaccinated staff would be barred from accessing its premises with effect from Monday, January 17, 2022.
The warning was contained in a circular signed by the FCTA Permanent Secretary, Mr. Olusade Adesola, which was issued on Monday, January 10, 2022.
